Tasting Notes

Jancis Robinson Jancis Robinson - 13 Oct 04
Deep purple with a slightly muddy rim. Amazing colour. Prunes and interest on the nose. Real depth and integrity, Not just sweet but real concentration and ripeness plus dry savour of tannin on the finish. So ripe it is almost not refreshing though. (JR)

Portugal Fine Wine and Fortified Port

Portugal

Portugal is a treasure trove of indigenous grapes, ancient traditions and modern confidence. From the schistous slopes of the Douro to the breezy Atlantic coast, the wines offer freshness, texture and authenticity. Expect structured reds, mineral whites, and of course, Port – but also thrilling lesser-known finds from regions like Dão, Bairrada and Alentejo. A rich, expressive and hugely rewarding wine culture.
