Colour: An opaque, intense ruby red, with tinges of violet. Nose: concentrated, opulent and with remarkable depth. Ripe fruit dominates, a heady mix of red and darker fruit, with hints of dried plums and some rock rose and eucaplyptus. All this against a complex backdrop created by the Douro's hot, schist soils. Palate: A drier style with excellent srtucture, mouthfeel and balance that continues to the end of a long, long finish.

From Cellar to Table: Vintage Ports are famed as the perfect partners for certain cheeses - particularly blue cheeses such as Stilton and Roquefort. And an unforgettable foil for dark chocolate, particularly when paired also with raspberries or other red fruit. This single-quinta Vintage, made and stored in the Douro Valley, can be enjoyed now or laid down for several decades.

The 2017 harvest will be remembered for being one of the earliest ever int eh Douro. Following a dry, warm winter, spring brought an early start to the vines' growth cycle. At the end of August, nocturnal temperatures dropped drastically, which also brought forward the maturation date for grapes along the valley. Hot days and cool nights combined to produce the perfect conditions for perfectly balanced grapes. September continued dry, meaning harvest was devoid of any major problems and we finished work ahead of schedule. Production was lower than usual, with smaller bunches and berries than usual, producing excellent concentration and an almost perfect ratio of skin and fruit. This is a year that for sure will go down as a great vintage of exceptional wines.
