CLIMATE & TERROIR: A climate with warm summers and cold
winters. The terroir has elements of weathered granite and
slate.

VINIFICATION: After the intensive soaking period, the fermentation continues
in progress. When approximately 8% is reached the process is stopped by
addition of wine alcohol and the juice can be stored for a period of
(average) 30 years maturing in wood.

GRAPES: touriga francesa, tinta roriz, touriga nacional
ALCOHOL PERCENTAGE: 20.00%

SMELL & TASTE: Brown-orange with a silky nose of
dried fruit, fresh nuts and herbs. The taste is strong but
elegant with candied red and black fruit, complexity and a long
aftertaste.

SERVING SUGGESTION: Serve slightly chilled. Delicious with old
Gouda cheese.

FACT: Every year, 1 to 2% of the maturing port evaporates from the
barrels, the 'port pipes'. This is called the 'angel's share'
