A good vintage not declared by most shippers but some excellent single quinta Vintage Ports were produced. A note from Michael Symington of the Symington Port Group, which owns the well known names as W&J Graham Vintage Port, Dow Vintage Port and Warre Vintage Port, stated "The general feeling at the close of this 1969 Vintage is that very much better wines have been produced than was at times thought possible, but 1969 is certainly not going to a particularly outstanding Port Vintage. But as the previous nine Vintages (since '59) have all been good to outstanding, including three ‘Declared’ years, '60, '63 and '66, we are in no position to grumble at what looks like being no better than an ‘average’ year!"
