Perhaps the best young Churchill’s I’ve tasted, the
2000 blends complexity with structure to create an eminently ageable Port. For fruit lovers, there’s crushed berries and plums, but notes of dried spices and earth add depth. Estimated maturity: 2020–2050. — Wine Enthusiast (11/15/2003)
The colour is dark purple and intense. The nose is complex and concentrated and the taste is solid and intensely focused with a good tannin structure.

| Producer |
| Founded in 1981 by John Graham and his wife Caroline Churchill, Churchill’s port is an independent, family-owned Port Wine House -- the first independent port wine house established in more than fifty years.
Churchill’s is the only port wine producer who begins with wines produced only from grapes grown in Grade A vineyards. And according to Robert Parker, Jr., writing in The Wine Advocate, “Churchill’s has established an impeccable reputation for superb quality.”
