CROFT VINTAGE PORT 1960

Opened this with dinner and the chocolate-cherry combo was spot-on — paired beautifully with a simple roast. The vanilla finish lingered just long enough without being cloying.

That silky mouthfeel really makes this stand out — it glides across the tongue. The cherry and vanilla flavors are well-balanced, and for a '60 it's surprisingly complex without being heavy.

The nose alone is worth it — that chocolate and cherry combo is so inviting, and the silky mouth-feel lives up to the description. It drinks way more mature than a '60, with that vanilla finish lingering nicely. Served it to friends who usually skip port and they kept going back for more.
