Product details
Vintage Ports are the quintessence of port wine, produced (“declared”) only in outstanding years which produce exceptional wines. Rigorous selection of grapes precedes vinification aimed at maximising the extraction of aromas and colour, to obtain dense and intense tasting wines. After maturing for two years in oak vats, the Gran Cruz blend is produced by selecting wines from that year with the best organoleptic qualities and with the greatest potential to age in bottle. The wine is then placed in a dark bottle with a cork appropriate to a long life.
