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.

Winemakers Notes

Schwarze, rubinrot tintige Farbe. Sehr aromatisch und blumig durch die Vargellas Veilchen. Geschmack frischer Brommbeeren und einem Wink von Gewürzen. Im Gaumen Frucht, Schokolade und Lakritze.

The Vargellas vineyard is literally a bowl-shaped vineyard. This was purchased by Taylor Fladgate in the late 1800's. This house is known for its structured Ports, a bit "buttoned up" one could say, full of firm fruit and tannins. Full of licorice, mint, dark berries and a spicy, near pine needle aroma on the finish.
