<p></p><p>Approach at Quinta de Cottas is to capture the essence of the Douro Valley’s premier vineyards producing wines with high quality, distinct personality that pair well with food and are accessibly priced.<br />Quinta de Cottas house style is the blend of the vineyards with the winery’s personality and winemaking priorities, as expressed through the wines. Although the wines are different in each vintage, a thread of similarity ties them together</p>

<p></p><p><span>Quinta de la Rosa port wine is made each year in the traditional manner, trodden in granite lagares from grapes grown at Quinta de la Rosa. Each year they keep back a small quantity of their best ports LBV quality and above. It is from these stocks that they blend their Tonel 12. This blending occurs on a regular basis to ensure that stocks are always fresh. For many years, before 1988, when they started selling port under the La Rosa brand, the Bergqvist family used to go down to 'Tonel 12' (a large 25 pipe barrel kept in the lodge under the house) and fill their decanter full of delicious ten year old tawny direct from the barrel. To this day they still refer to Tonel 12, instead of ten year old tawny, and decided to keep the name on the label</span></p>

<p></p><p>All ports at Quinta de la Rosa are made in the ‘house style’ namely slightly drier without any cloying sweetness that is often associated with ports. As in their wines, they search for balance, harmony and equilibrium from their vineyards and they try to enable the grapes to express themselves in the bottle. The La Rosa style is to make well defined wines without too much extraction and tannin</p>

<p></p><p><span>Quinta de la Rosa  Tawny 30 year old has a beautiful amber colour showing its age well.  The long, slow maturation in old wooden pipes (550L barrels) has given this magnificent wine enormous elegance and complexity. On the nose, slightly dried fruit aromas with touches of balsamic vinegar, coffee and exotic wood are just some of its components.  On the palate, it is simply delicious, almost light but with incredible intensity of flavour, soft, mouth filling with great persistence.</span></p>
