1960
The vintage year 1960 was a return after the magnificent 1959s vintage to the normal wine. The cold summer could this one to no best possible do grapes provide ripen. Acceptable wines have nevertheless been produced. The plants were ready-to-drink early, though and did not have any particularly long ageing potential. The best locum tenenses of this vintage are chateau Latour and chateau La mission Haut Brion as well as chateau Figeac. A still well drinkable copy can be found with a little happiness here. Paying attention to bottles stored well!
A very hot summer led to a good one to an extraordinary vintage. 24 port houses declared the year. Today, still finding beautiful wines. Vintage seems Niepoort to be filigree.
After the leading vintage 1959 in Germany a weaker year in all German viniculture regions. Large harvest quantities of light wines of middle quality. Hardly high qualities like selections or dry wines of selected grapes could be produced. The sugar contents did not authorize this. Avoiding rather!
