Can anyone help me with comments about 1996 ports (I know it wasn't a generally declared year). These will be drunk now and for the next 50 years. Are there any 1996 that will go that long? These bottles will help celebrate a special occasion in my life every 5 or 10 years. Thanks

1996 VP

The 96 Quinta do Vesuvio would be your best bet. Always declared, always ageworthy.

Here are some excellent choices that are listed in order of my own preference:

1996 Quinta do Noval Nacional
1996 Quinta do Vesuvio
1996 Graham's Malvedos
1996 Quinta do Bomfim
