Origin

Produced in the Douro Valley, Portugal, a renowned region for Port wine production with a long tradition of viticulture and winemaking.

Variety

This sweet white Port is typically crafted from a blend of indigenous white grape varieties native to the Douro region, such as Malvasia Fina, Gouveio, Rabigato, and Viosinho.

Production

The wine undergoes controlled fermentation before fortification with grape spirit to halt fermentation, preserving natural sugars and resulting in a sweet profile. It is then aged in oak casks to develop complexity and smoothness. The "Lagrima" style is known for its delicate sweetness and aromatic intensity.

Tasting notes

  • Palate: Smooth and luscious sweetness balanced by fresh acidity, flavors of apricot, citrus peel, and a subtle nuttiness on the finish.

Food pairings
