Description

A bottle of Warre's 1970 Vintage Port, produced for the company's Tercentenary. Imported and bottled by Percy Fox & Co.

'Deep garnet centre, thin browning rim; very fine, fragrant floral aromas (violets) , open, perfumed and very fine; still rich and voluptuous in style, backed by cast iron tannins, bitter-sweet, dark chocolate concentration followed by lovely rich plummy length. This has real integrity and is drinking beautifully now but will continue to evolve well for another decade or more. 18.5/20' Richard Mayson, tasting in 2009.

Please note, there is no size or ABV stated on the label, but this appears to be a 75cl bottle.

Condition

Please see images for fill level and label condition. Note general wear.

The Whisky.Auction team has inspected this lot and found it to be suitable for sale. However, please note the absence of a condition statement does not imply that this lot is in perfect condition or free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of ageing. We cannot guarantee that the contents of this bottle will be free from the effects of age, cork taint, oxidation or other faults. Older bottles often contain sediment. Wines are more fragile than spirits and older wines may be listed, at our discretion, for their historical interest rather than their drinkability. We can in no way guarantee that they are still within their plateau of maturity or to the buyer’s taste.

This bottle does not appear to be leaking. While we take every care to pack bottles securely we cannot guarantee that old corks and closures will not leak in transit.
