Full bodied, well balanced with deep jammy fruit.
Wine Spectator 90 points - Peppery aromas, with lots of crushed berries. Medium- to full-bodied, with light sweetness and a soft, round tannic structure. Not on the same level as the fabulous 2000. Best after 2010. 3,000 cases made. –JS (Apr 30 2006)
Vintage Port is the flagship of the Churchill's range. The powerful backbone is achieved through a combination of wines from our various Grade A quintas. Renowned for being full bodied, well balanced with deep jammy fruit.

| 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.”
