Origin

Produced in the Douro Valley, Portugal, a renowned wine region known for its unique terroir and ideal conditions for Port wine production.

Variety

Made from a blend of traditional Portuguese grape varieties typical of Vintage Port, including Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinta Barroca, and Tinto Cão.

Production

The grapes are hand-harvested and fermented with the addition of grape spirit (aguardente) to stop fermentation early, preserving natural sugars and resulting in a fortified wine. The wine is aged in barrels for a short period before bottling to mature further in the bottle over many years.

Tasting notes

  • Appearance: Deep ruby to garnet color with a dense and viscous texture.
  • Aroma: Intense and complex bouquet featuring ripe dark fruits such as blackberries and plums, complemented by notes of spices, chocolate, and subtle floral hints.
  • Palate: Full-bodied and rich with a balanced sweetness, firm tannins, and a long, elegant finish.

Food pairings

  • Perfect with strong cheeses such as Stilton or Roquefort.
  • Pairs well with dark chocolate desserts and rich fruit tarts.
  • Excellent accompaniment to roasted nuts and dried fruits.
  • Can be enjoyed as a digestif after meals.
