<p></p><p>Warre's, founded in 1670 was the first British Port company established in Portugal and therefore the pioneer of a great tradition; its history is synonymous with that of Port itself. Warre’s Ports are distinguished for their structure, elegance and softly perfumed nose. They have a particularly fresh and elegant style</p> <p></p> <p> </p> <p></p>

<p>Diálogo is a pleasant, easy drinking red wine, but with complexity, mineral notes and great depth, found in the classic Douro wines. It is produced from vineyards located in the Cima Corgo sub-region, being the main varieties, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Touriga Nacional, Tinta Amarela and Tinta Barroca. Its freshness and youth well integrated with soft tannins, make this wine, full of Douro character, a very pleasant wine to drink. The illustration of Luís Afonso tells stories on the labels of Diálogo since its very first edition</p>

<p>Cão que Ladra  Red Wine presents bright ruby color, aromas of wild forest fruits and a subtle herbal note, with oak perfectly integrated. On the palate it is elegant, with fine tannins, firm acidity, and a balanced, gastronomic character. Recommended serving temperature is 14–16 °C, and the wine has excellent aging potential—at least 10 years when properly storedb</p>

<p></p><p>Quinta de Napoles is an elegant and structured wine. This wine represents the quintessence of our old vines at Quinta de Nápoles. Its pale red hue of medium intensity is characteristic of the wines from the 2018 vintage. The nose is at the same time delicate and complex. A base of currants and red berries gives way to floral aromas of violet, hints of Earl Grey tea, spice and a minty note which harmonises in a light and refreshing way with the wine’s wooded nuances. The palate is incredibly elegant, rounded and flawlessly</p>

<p></p><p>Herédias White Wine</p> <p>The barrel aging allowed this wine to stand out from all its most mineral characteristics. Floral in aroma, but in harmony with the barrel, this wine is very complete, with a remarkable volume and structure, since the first tasting. The citrus notes and the minerality, give freshness to the wine, keeping the aftertaste vibrant and long</p>
