1974 Port Vintage Report
The 1974 port vintage produced some excellent single harvest colheita, making a port from this year the ideal 52 year old wine gift for a 52nd birthday or anniversary. For vintage ports it was a moderate year that was not declared by the major port houses; despite a huge crop, very few vintage port wines were bottled from this year and the bottles that were produced are very rare.
