Bottles

Shipped by Palmers in barrel and bottles here at the brewery, Martinez 1955 had not seen the light of day for over 60 years until we decided to release some from our bond. Martinez 1955 is a classic and is drinking perfectly. Please note that the Martinez 1955 vintage port has no label.

Rich, penetrating aromas of currant, fig and violet melt into the full bodied palate, which still has a firm structure despite its age. Rich and beautifully balanced, this port is a delight to drink now but still also has a long life ahead of it.

A fabulous year for vintage Ports and Graham 1983 is a perfect example of this quality. Rich and powerful showing all of Grahams. Drink over the next 10-12 years.

A unique mineral-scented character that is typical to Warre's that gives them their own complexity and style. The 1983 is richly perfumed and fragrant, a fine example of the ports from this vintage.

"Full bodied. Powerful. Still opaque; soft, sweet fleshy. Well endowed with fruit, alcohol and tannin for longevity. Magnificent. Drink 1998-2030. Potentially outstanding."

Full in colour with a richness and big depth of fruit. The tannins are softening, to be sure, but there is still lots of body and power that will allow it to improve for many years.

Typically for Warre, this is a big, powerful wine, packed with lots of deep concentrated fruit, wrapped in a rich, rounded tannic structure. Ready to drink now but will keep.

The wines were appealing from the start, with ripe fleshy fruit concealing the underlying tannic grip that will enable these wines to stand the test of time. Classic vintage, superlative structure, great wines

Retaining a deep and youthful colour, the nose has intense black fruit characters, with notes of sweet spices, liquorice and vanilla. The palate has structure and concentration, with rich, ripe plum and cherry flavours, more spice and firm tannins. It is drinking well now, but still has many years ahead.
