Fortunately I aquired two bottles of this as there was very little of the label left on the bottle I opened. There was sufficient label left on the other bottle to establish that both came from the Quinta's 150th anniversary bottling in 1963. The wine had a clear reddish amber colour with a mature leathery nose a couple of hours after being decanted. The drinking was sweet, plummy and spicey all at the same time. The long ageing had allowed a harmonious blending of the disparate taste elements thus delivering a superbly statisfying drinking experience.
