Wine vintage rating 1964

What was the vintage 1964 like?

1964 Grand St.Emilion and Pomerol Year. There are vintages where the differences within the wine region from community to community are clear. With hail and rain, with frost, local differences can be easily explained. The different quality between the Bordeaux appellations of the left bank (Médoc) and the right bank (St.Emilion and Pomerol) in a year like 1964 has another reason. The dominant grape variety in Médoc is Cabernet Sauvignon, while St. Emilion and Pomerol are dominated by the Merlot grape variety. Merlot ripens earlier than Cabernet Sauvignon. In 1964, at the time of the harvest, heavy rain began when Merlot had already been harvested, while the other grape varieties in the vineyards suffered greatly.
In Italy, 1964 is considered an excellent vintage, perfect in Tuscany, a great vintage - grande annata declared for Barolo and Barbaresco in Piedmont. Accordingly, Riserva and Riserva Speciale are frequently encountered in Piedmontese wines in 1964.

Weather in the year 1964

The winter was cold and returned once more with snowfall in March. Spring and early summer remained cool, but a pronounced heat wave with high temperatures set in in mid-July. In Burgundy in particular it was unusually warm.

Bordeaux got a hot, very dry summer, barring some downpours in late July.

The weather deteriorated for the harvest. October turned stormy and brought the first snow in the north.

Good filling levels, good wine quality

The fill level of an old vintage wine reveals important information on the drinkability of the wine.
Of course, the good condition of a wine from an old vintage depends on excellent storage. Above all, the wine must not have frequently changed cellars. Ideally, the wine will have rested in one and the same wine cellar.

But also the cork that sits in each individual bottle is very important. A perfect cork has few pores and keeps the wine stable. If an inferior cork happens to have been used in a bottle, the porous surface will begin to soak up wine and allow micro-quantities of the liquid to evaporate over the decades. Poor fill levels are the result.

A poor fill level therefore also indicates a high risk that the wine bottle could soon begin to leak.


The fill levels explained:
In the bottle neck (high fill to base neck) about 2 cm is perfect for wines.
Top and upper shoulder, ([very] top shoulder), approx. 3 cm is very good for very old wines.
Medium shoulder (mid shoulder), about 4 cm is only acceptable for rare top wines and in individual cases.
Everything below the red line should not be offered any more.

Wine rating

Do you have a 1964 vintage in your wine cellar and would you like to know how much it is worth?

Here are a few tips: in order to still have any value, the bottle must be leakproof. The wine must not be cloudy. It should be of good quality (not supermarket wine).

Search for the wine online without specifying the vintage. If it is a well-known winery, you will find the wine immediately and also the price you have to pay for the current vintage. If the current wine costs from EUR 20.00 upwards, that's a good sign.

The filling level is decisive for the value. Upper shoulder to base neck is required. Medium shoulder is only acceptable for extremely rare, already valuable wines.

SW19305 1964 Rioja Reserva Especial Lacuesta
Riserva Speciale - Rioja

 In 1844 Luciano Francisco Ramòn de Murrieta, returned to his home near Logrono in Rioja from England, where he  developed an appreciation for wine, recognized that there was nothing wrong with the grapes growing in Rioja's vineyards. The only problem was that the wine was not being produced correctly. Determined to obtain sufficient knowledge on winemaking to make a good modern wine, he went to Bordeaux, where he studied both grape growing and winemaking techniques. Four years later, he began producing wine in Rioja using local grapes, mostly Garnacha and Tempranillo, the 1852 vintage being the first of what today is considered traditional Rioja, a red aged in oak casks, marked by the taste of both fruit and wood, and possessing the potential for extended cellaring.

SW10924-1 1964 Barolo Giacomo Morra
Piemonte

The classical dry red wine comes from the Barolo DOC in Northern Italy, the most important wine region of Piedmont. Prior to the mid-19th century, Barolo was a sweet wine. The fact that the Nebbiolo grape ripens late in October meant that temperatures would be steadily dropping by harvest. By November and December, temperatures in the Piedmont region would be cold enough to halt fermentation, leaving a significant amount of residual sugar left in the wine. In the mid-19th century the French enologist Louis Oudart improve the winemaking techniques of the local producers. Using techniques focusing on improving the hygiene of the cellar, Oudart was able to ferment the Nebbiolo must completely dry, making the first modern Barolo. This new, dry red wine soon became a favorite among the nobility of Turin and the ruling House of Savoy, giving rise to the popular description of Barolo as the wine of kings, the king of wines.
