Pore Wren OLD IN THE Woo. —'The readers of
the Medical lintee and Gazette are aware of the impto t-
epee which we attach to good wine in the treatment of
disease. Five samples of Port Wine have been forwarded
to our office, which we think well deserving the attention
of practitioners. We are informed that they are sam-
ples of • great quantit7 of wine of the vintages 1884,
1840, 1847, 1858 and 1803, which have been left in the
wood till quite • recent period, and have been allowed to
rest in the caves of their native country. By this mean.,
as we are informed, old wine costs much leas than it
would have done had it been imported and bottled years
ago, and put into store in the wine merchants' cellars in
this country: certainly, if we are not misinformed, the
wines before us are extremely moderate in price. More.
over, the double proeess of spoliation and of develop-
ment, the parting with superfluous body, and the evolu•
lion of fine flavors which wine undergoes as it grows old
is very different in cask to what it is in bottle." (More
than one thousand two hundred pipes of these wino,
were bought from the trustees of the late Baron Saito by
Mem". W. & A. tlllbey, forming one of the many par.
chases they are from time to time making in Portugal to
represent their established brands.) "We subjoin the
memoranda= we jotted down in the order in which each
wea handed to us by our secretary :

Port 1817—Fine tawny colour, not much deeper than
Madeira. Taste strong, rich, subluscious, clean; fine
vinous flavor: no hest.
' Port —lB4o—Color and quelities similar to the preced-
ing hardly so sweet: fine flavor.
Port 1834—Color of Madeira; fine, strong. clean, vin-
ous flavor: very soft; drier than preceding; might be
taken for Madeira, yet with decided Port flavor; aver
fine wine.
Port 1858—Light Port color; very rich taste; strong
and vinous; not hot.

Port 1863-4 tweet, rich Port Wine, not cloying nor

heavy,
We may add that we have administered these wines to
the sick with benefit. These old wines, especially the
1834, would be most valuable in any case in which life
was menaced by exhausting disease."—The Medical
Times and Gazette.
