1945 Port Vintage Report

The 1945 port vintage was the first end-of-war vintage. It was a superb quality five-star vintage, although the quantity produced was small. 22 shippers declared the vintage, with Cockburn being the only major abstention. The ports are now very rare but are still drinking well today, making them an excellent 76 year old wine gift for a birthday or anniversary this year.

Dow's, 1945

Vintage Port
Very Good Condition

Dow’s 1945 Port is a legendary vintage, celebrated for its exceptional quality and historical significance as the first major vintage declaration after World War II. The 1945 growing season in Portugal’s Douro Valley produced wines of remarkable concentration and balance, laying the foundation for this port's enduring reputation. Known for its elegance, it exhibits rich flavors of dried fruits, nuts, chocolate, and spices, complemented by a complex bouquet of dark fruits, caramel, and subtle herbal notes. With firm tannins and balanced acidity, it exemplifies the extraordinary aging potential of vintage ports, remaining vibrant and drinkable even today.
