1947 Cockburn

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Cockburn 1947 removed from the Cockburn Director’s cellar and decanted for 1 hour. Deep red-amber colour, 60% opaque. Fragrant spiced rose hip nose. A lovely thickness to the wine, full of fragrant sweet fruit; complex and floral. Lovely sweet aftertaste, long rose hip syrup finish. Wonderful Port. 94/100. Drunk 28-Sep-21.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
