What to Expect

Port wine is one of the great dessert wines of the world. Based on a blend that usually features Touriga Nacional, vintage Port is a rich red wine witch is fortified with grape spirits. It combines the chewy, tannic bite of red wine with a sweetness that helps buffer the added alcohol and supports the spicy plum and dark berry fruits. Vintage Port is capable of aging and improving for decades. Other types of Port include Ruby Port, which is enjoyed in its youth for it fresh fruit, Tawny Port, which has been aged in wood for years giving it its tawny color and progressively nuttier flavors as the wine increases in age, and Colheita port, which is a Tawny Port from a single vintage.

The Vintage 2000 port shows great promise. When cask samples were tasted in April, the port appeared to still be very young and vibrant with plenty of concentrated fruit. The Vintage port is elegant in style with a slightly drier finish in keeping with all La Rosa ports. It will age well and should be drunk after 15 years or more but, for those who like to drink their Vintage ports young, will also be approachable after 5 years.
