Fonseca's, Vintage Port 1934
Bottled by Hatch, Mansfield and Co. New Christie's Raby Castle labels based on archival material from Taylor Fladgate. Slightly corroded capsules. One bottle with signs of old seepage. Levels: five into-neck and one top-shoulder

Bottled by Hatch & Mansfield. This is an extremely rare Port, only occasionally seen at auction and the even the library stock in the Fonseca lodge is very limited.
Tasting note: More reserved, refined taste. Lively, elegant, fresh with a pretty slight salinity. An absolute fantastic Fonseca in a lace like finesse with lots of energy and bags of life. Great strength.
