Port Wine

97 pts Revista de Vinhos - The aroma is highly complex and rich, with nuances of wood, dried tobacco leaves, coffee beans, dried fruits, cloves, exotic woods, and some iodine so characteristic of aged Port wines. Tasting this wine is a memorable experience and reminds us that it was worth the wait, and that time has transformed this wine into something even more special. In the mouth, it is a wine with a very fresh attack, with enormous complexity and volume in the mouth, complemented by an acidity that balances the whole thing, making it very harmonious. The finish is very long and fresh.

Disclaimer:
The photo shown is a copy of one of the bottles we have available for delivery. Keep in mind that the older the wine, the more likely the bottle will have some external dirt or slightly damaged labels. This does not mean, however, that the wine is not in a condition to be consumed.
The wines from our rarity zone are stored and air-conditioned in the most correct way so that the wine ages correctly in the bottle, but over time, the wine evolves and changes its characteristics.
We recommend that you carefully remove the cork and let the wine air for some time in order to release its natural aromas. Avoid decanting as it can be a very aggressive operation for old wines.
