Expert Reviews

The Wine Enthusiast 92 Points | Like their more familiar aged tawny counterparts, aged white Ports take on color as they age. This 10-year-old is pale gold in the glass. While its fruitiness remains, it's beginning to show more woody, spicy character. Like all aged Ports, it's ready to drink now.

The Wine Spectator 92 Points | Creamy and lush-tasting, with a complex and concentrated mix of butterscotch, salted almond and quince flavors. Dried apricot, honey and spice details linger on the rich finish. Drink now. 200 cases imported.

The Wine Advocate 90 Points | The NV 10 Year Old White Port is a Douro field blend of typical white grapes bottled in 2016 with a bar top cork and 118 grams per liter of residual sugar. Tight and tense, this is a focused white with a dry-ish finish, but nothing close to austere. It is the good acidity that keeps this in balance, preventing the sugar from making it too cloying. That ultimately gives this just a little distinction to go with its sweet edge. As I let it sit on the tongue, I began to like it more and more. It is very pretty for a 10, although of course it does not have the same concentration as older ones.

Winemaker Description 

• An appealing gold colour. Elegant and complex, with aromas of spice, prevailing notes of dried fruit and elegant hints of wood. Smooth and round on the palate, it shows complexity amidst intense flavours of dried fruit. An excellent finish.

The rows of vines are traditionally planted across the slope in horizontal terraces. More recently vines have been planted up the slope (called “vinha ao alto”, meaning vertically planted).
