Croft Vintage Port 1963 is a mature fortified wine hailing from the distinguished vineyards of the Douro Valley, where steep schist terraces characterise the landscape. This vintage is crafted from a carefully selected blend of indigenous grapes, including Touriga Nacional, Tinta Barroca and Tinta Roriz, reflecting the region`s unique terroir. Croft, one of the oldest Port houses, was established in 1588, producing wines that are renowned for their longevity and complexity. The 1963 vintage showcases the hallmark characteristics of age, marked by rich flavours and a layered structure, appealing to discerning collectors and connoisseurs.

- The 1963 Croft Vintage Port comes from a pivotal vintage in the Douro. The nose is well defined and quite feminine with an exotic element in the background that never comes to the fore. The palate displays good concentration and balance but is let down in terms of complexity and length, a Croft “playing it safe”, conservative and reluctant to take chances. It has a certain elegance to it, but I would punt for either the 1960 or 1966 Croft. Tasted in the Factory House in Porto for Taylor's - The Story of a Classic Port House book.
