Jancis Robinson Jancis Robinson - 22 Nov 25
Full cork-stoppered flask 1,349 g.  Glowing orange tawny. Big and beefy – perhaps not quite as sweetly subtle and flatteringly mellow as the white Colheita 2010. Quite marked acidity and tannin, even at this stage! Suffers only by comparison with the white 2010 … (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.
