See details of the wines declared or bottled from the year 1965:
Not declared but some very good quinta wines bottled.
A very dry year. Some very welcome rain in early March, but hopes for more went unfulfilled, as was repeatedly chronicled in the Bomfim guest books:
Very hot and dry and rain badly required. A little rain fell during the night of 5th-6th but not enough to do much good.

After the long summer drought the vines are all very dried up.
