| Comment | At home with the family The label read that the vintage was produced from Quinta da Foz and Quinta de Santo Antonio. It seems to be that the house of Calem declared its vintage from those two quintas. | Tasters | SAI, JB, SS |

| House | van Zellers | Vintage | 1933 |
| Colour | Mature tawny in colour. | Number of tastings | 1 |
| Bouquet | Old nose with pharmacy and old hospital dominated. | Score range | 14.00 - 14.00 |
| Taste | Medium body. Quite old port. Alcoholic and of course a bit unbalanced due to the year and the vintage. However, still knit together and drinkable and a nice finish. Astonishing port anyhow due to this rare vintage year. | Average score | |
