The deep auburn centre reflects the wine’s amazing concentration, while the pale ochre rim signals its venerable age. A flourish of aromas reveals walnuts, soft caramel and honey notes, demerara, citrus preserves and cigar box scents. The voluptuous palate — simultaneously intense and delicate — unravels layers of refined, rich citrus fruit and soft caramel, with a beam of freshness providing exquisite balance. Pleasant traces of tobacco leaf and mocha make for a lingering finale.

Seven decades in winey oak casks have given this port an incredible breadth and complexity. It's perfect to drink after a meal, alone and slowly, like a dessert. Given the incredible freshness and concentration of the wine, it will also go perfectly with cream or dried fruit desserts.

In 1950 World War II was still a recent memory, Europe was slowly rebuilding its ravaged economy and many port producers ceased to exist. Given the prevailing economic climate as the time, which made it difficult to keep large stocks of wine for ageing over prolonged periods, only limited quantities of the best parcels of the 1950 harvest were set aside for long-term ageing and very little has reached us. Charles Symington has now decided to release just half of our very last cask.
