This to me was magnificent all I want from a port I had warres 83 previously and this blew it away well balanced medium bodied a finish that lasted forever

I'm sorry I gave no scores Warres 83 5-5.the Fonseca 64 8-at it's peak like an elegant lady not to overbearing medium bodied with style as good as if not better than quite a few 66's and aged better than some 63's I don't know how long it will last though.but if you can find some it's a bargain at £30

Simon,

Was this a single quinta wine? Fonseca didn't declare '64 for their blend.
