In Churchill's case, I was not satisfied with the potential of our 1983, but felt the 1982 was rich and beautifully balanced. Hailing from the older vineyards of Água Alta, Manuela and Fojo, I felt this 1982 had enough tannin structure to balance the opulent fruit. After 39 years, I'm glad I was right. Although it tastes beautiful now, I think it will continue to age well, gaining concentration and maintaining its elegant balance.\" - Johnny Graham, 2021.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeep purple color.

Winter was cold and the Summer was very hot. This was one of the earliest harvests at that time. With low production, but very good quality. The wines were delicate and elegant, with great concentration of aromas.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Churchill's","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45739412881564,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0505\/9919\/8876\/files\/vp_1982_1x1_065f9bb6-019b-42da-a44c-c75780ef14da.jpg?v=1765784716","url":"https:\/\/drinkchurchills.co.uk\/products\/churchills-1982-vintage-port","provider":"Churchill's UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
