Description
The 1975 Cockburn's Vintage Port is a mature wine that has developed a rich and complex profile over the decades. Tasting notes highlight a prominent nose featuring chocolate oranges and marmalade, complemented by a subtle hint of rose perfume. On the palate, it presents a slightly hollow entry that gradually unfolds into flavors of ripe fruit and bitter orange. The finish is characterized by a touch of heat, settling into a soft and sweet length reminiscent of red licorice.
The 1975 vintage in the Douro Valley was notable, with most shippers declaring it a good year, producing attractive and elegant Vintage Ports. It was also the first year that Vintage Ports were required to be bottled in Portugal, rather than being shipped in cask and bottled in other countries.
Overall, the 1975 Cockburn's Vintage Port offers a rich and mature tasting experience, reflecting the quality and character of that year's vintage.
