I'm going with two.
The 1912? Niepoort White and the 1952 Dalva White Colheita. These made me rethink the whole catagory of White Port.

what is the best port

Post by dave leach »

i guess the 63 fonseca i had for my birthday is a given, but i've had 3 bottles of 1977 gould campbell this year. i must say, i think it is the true surprise of that vintage. this is an exceptional port, well priced, and even better than i had once thought. it is drinking surperbly right now, and its so good i splurged for another case.

Gould Campbell

The port that I liked the most was a Gould Campbell 1983. I can remember it the best, and I thought it had a lot of style.

Glad to hear that GC 77 is doing well. That was the first port I bought to lay down (only four bottles alas) about 1992, but I still have not tried it.
