| VM 91 (6/2018): The 1955 Croft Vintage was born in a year that saw a spring heatwave that was immediately followed by rain in May that aided flowering, whilst the Summer months were hot so that harvest could begin on September 19th. This is an excellent mature Croft though not quite the caliber of the ’35, ’45 or ’48. A conservative nose with touches of cigar box, iron rust and dried fruits leads on to a palate with very good depth and concentration. It is a solid, sturdy Port that is masculine and “correct”, but still very focused with touches of spice, lemongrass and mulberry towards the finish that has good depth. It improves all the time in glass so decant this Port for at least three hours and yet it never quite sheds its stoic façade. Tasted in the Factory House in Porto for "Taylor's - The Story of a Classic Port House" book. (Drink between 2018-2030). Neal Martin. |

| VM 92 (6/2018): The 1963 Croft Vintage Port comes from a pivotal vintage in the Douro. The nose is well defined and quite feminine with an exotic element in the background that never comes to the fore. The palate displays good concentration and balance but is let down in terms of complexity and length, a Croft “playing it safe”, conservative and reluctant to take chances. It has a certain elegance to it, but I would punt for either the 1960 or 1966 Croft. Tasted in the Factory House in Porto for "Taylor's - The Story of a Classic Port House" book. (Drink between 2018-2030). Neal Martin. |

VM 91+ (2/2003): ) Bright medium ruby. Vibrant aromas of blueberry, graphite and violet. Suave, sweet and very firmly built; still a bit youthfuly clenched but concentrated, intensely fruity and stylish. This is structured to develop slowly in bottle. Seemed to grow longer as it opened in the glass. Like a mini-Taylor.
WA 90 (10/2002): A striking, individualistic nose of spring flowers, blackberries, blueberries, and lead pencil shavings emerges from this saturated purple-colored 2000. Evolved yet expansive, sweet, and generous, it admirably conceals moderately high tannins under a wealth of fruit and glycerin. The aromatic profile and attack merit a score in the mid-nineties, but the finish is short, thus lowering the overall rating. My instincts suggest there is more to this port than it revealed the days I tasted it. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2025? |

WA 93 (10/2005): The 2003 Croft Vintage Port reveals an opaque, black-colored core with notes of dark ruby on the rim. Its gorgeously creamy, profound nose displays sweet dark cherries, black plums, pepper, raisin jam, and blueberries. Thick, satin-textured, and immensely rich, this opulent yet elegant wine is engagingly warm, concentrated, and harmonious. Copious quantities of plums, black cherries, jammy blackberries and spices are found throughout its personality as well as in its prolonged, spirit-tinged, finish. Projected maturity: 2020-2045.
VM 90 (2/2006): Bright, saturated ruby. Brooding aromas of bitter cherry, violet and licorice, lifted by a resiny nuance. Then densely packed, concentrated and fresh, with rich, fleshy flavors of kirsch and dark chocolate. Finishes with big, broad, thoroughly ripe tannins and very good lingering black cherry fruit. This is surprisingly easy to taste today but should age well on its ripe tannins and sheer balance. |

| JS 95 (5/2013): Beautiful aromas of violets and blueberries with hints of blue slate. Full body, medium sweet with chewy tannins and a long, long finish.
