1958 Port Vintage Report

Single Harvest/ Colheita Port
SPECIAL OFFER WAS £249 NOW £169

It is a wine, that by its age deserves to be "waited for" in the glass so that it can demonstrate its complexity, both in terms of aroma and palate. With nearly 60 years of age this true rarity deserves respect. …

Vintage Port

The Sandeman 1958 Vintage Port is a lovely wine for drinking now. 1958 was a fairly small vintage which wasn’t as widely declared as the 1955s or 1960s. Medium-bodied, with soft red fruit tones, overtones of dried fruits and wood smoke, this is a traditional after-dinner sipping Port.
