Portugal

This is a very refreshing, high acid Alvarinho from Portugal. The nose and palate show notes of citrus fruits and a nice floral character.

This white blend comes from relatively high-altitude vineyards above the river Douro. Bright lemon in colour. On the nose, intense floral aromas stand out, as well as citrus fruits, tropical fruits, white stone fruits and light asparagus aromas. It has lively acidity which is well integrated on the palate.

From the historic producer Casa Ferreirinha, the wine is made at the modern winery at Quinta da Leda in the Douro Valley. Very deep ruby in colour. Its intense and complex aromas include notes of red and black berries, balsamic hints, resin and cedar wood.

An easy drinking and full bodied wine which has delicious soft fruit flavours of raspberries and redcurrants. The wine is made from selected Portuguese grapes with the addition of Shiraz and this is evident from the superb balance between smooth, ripe fruit and youthful freshness.

Produced exclusively from Touriga Nacional grapes grown on the Company`s Douro Estate, Quinta da Gricha in Portugal. The wine is aged in 2nd and 3rd year French Oak for 12 months. A deep violet colour. On the nose, exuberant aromas of gum cistus and wild basil with hints of orange blossom.

A delightfully floral, dry white Vinho Verde made from a single local varietal `Loureiro`. There is a fine, subtle spritz enhancing the fresh and lively palate, whilst green apple and lemon zest flavours linger on the finish.

Quinta do Fojo primarily grow grapes for Taylor`s Port, but in exceptional years they will produce a still wine. This is a rich, powerful Douro red, showing wonderful dark fruit, a beautiful perfume and complex, earthy aromas.

The grapes were partially destemmed before treading by foot in the traditional lagars, a hallmark of Quinta do Infantado wines. Fermentation is long at Infantado, producing drier wines, some of the wine was aged in tank and some in oak barrel of various sizes and ages.

A blend of Touriga Nacional, Alfrocheiro & Aragonez, this is a beautifully made, full bodied wine with intense flavours and lots of red fruit and complex layers.The finish is long and fresh. Really good value for this high quality Portuguese red.
