This directory of vintage Ports is the fruit of the author's thirty years' experience in writing about Portuguese wine, visiting the producers and discussing their products with them. The guide to Port vintages takes each year in turn, noting relevant weather conditions, market considerations and the overall style of the wines, and highlights particularly successful shippers. Richard assesses each and every year back to 1960, which roughly coincides with the emergence of single-quinta vintage Port (SQVP) in between fully fledged declarations.
Richard Mayson's Guide to Vintage Port provides full contact details and tasting notes for over 50 vintage Port producers and shippers.
