This Burmester is a red wine with intense aromas, with notes of red and black fruits, floral and woody touch. In the mouth it shows full bodied, with tannins present, fresh, fruity and end of good persistence. Elaborated with Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Tinta Roriz, this label is an expression of the famous Douro region and of these three Portuguese grapes
The founders of Burmester house are John Burmester and Henry Nash. Its origins go back to Germany and projected the Douro and Port in the United Kingdom.
<p></p><p>The Symington family, with Scottish, English and Portuguese ancestry has been present in the Douro for five generations — since 1882 — and through the current generation’s great grandmother, the family’s links to the wines of the Douro span 14 generations, to the mid-17th century and to the very beginnings of the history of Port</p>
<p></p><p>The wines of Quinta da Lagoalva de Cima are the result of the producer's philosophy, of the remarkable characteristics of grape varieties of personality resulting from its microclimate and "terroir"</p>
<p></p><p><span>Casa Ferreirinha and its wines are synonymous with quality, time and art. Thus it has been since the company’s founding in the eighteenth century by Bernardo Ferreira, whose formula was refined by his descendants, especially his granddaughter Dona Antónia Adelaide Ferreira, known affectionately as "Ferreirinha" or "Ferreirinha-da-Régua".</span></p>
<p></p><p><span>The story of Dow’s is unusual amongst all the great Port houses. It began in 1798 when Bruno da Silva, a Portuguese merchant from Oporto, made a journey which was the opposite to that of the first British merchants. <span>The Port shipping business was continued by Bruno’s son, John da Silva who in 1862 brought into partnership Frederick William Cosens. <span>With the continuing expansion of the firm, Edward da Silva and Frederick Cosens were joined by George Acheson Warre, whose well known family had been involved in the Port trade since its earliest years. <span>In 1877, Silva & Cosens merged with another leading Port company, Dow & Co.</span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span>Although smaller than Silva & Cosens, Dow & Co had become a very highly regarded Port producer with a particularly fine reputation for its Vintage Ports and when the two companies merged, it was decided to adopt DOW’S as the brand name</span></span></span></span></span></p> <p>For over two centuries the name of DOW has been associated with the finest Port from the vineyards of the Upper Douro Valley. Throughout the 20th Century and into the 21st, the Symington family has built on the legacy of the preceding Silva and Dow families.</p> <p><span>Dow’s attractive and distinctive drier finish is the recognisable hallmark of the wines from this great Port house.</span></p> <p></p>

<p></p><p>In the oldest wine region in the world, the Quinta da Penalva or Perdiz was born in the 1990s. This arose from the joining of small plots of land, mostly old vines, inherited from ancestors for whom the cultivation of vines was of little secret, as they had always done it. Later, and already with the current owner, more parcels were added, thus joining the old vines to new plantations, cultivated using the most recent planting techniques</p>
<p>Poças Fora da Serie Uppercut Red Wine displays a deep ruby color and a rich aromatic profile, with notes of black fruits, cherry, and a subtle hint of oak. On the palate, it is smooth, structured, and layered, with a long and elegant finish.</p> <p></p> <p>With 14.7% alcohol content, low volatile acidity, and virtually no residual sugar, <strong>Poças Uppercut Special Edition</strong> is an ideal pairing for roasted dishes and red meats.
