Quinta da Boeira King Tawny 30 Years Port Wine

5/ 5

<p></p><p>Monte das Bagas de Ouro Reserva Red Wine is produced from the Antão Vaz grape variety.</p> <p>The Petit Verdot grape variety was the inspiration, the basis and the reason for this Reserva. The aroma is expressive, intense and enveloping. The fruits of the forest mixed with floral notes of violets, enveloped in a shy note of toast and pepper win us over immediately. Aging for 18 months in French oak barrels gives it complexity and structure, but also elegance and balance. A Reserva that finishes long, that persists and insists on winning us over.</p>

<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 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. The Port shipping business was continued by Bruno’s son, John da Silva who in 1862 brought into partnership Frederick William Cosens. 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. In 1877, Silva &amp; Cosens merged with another leading Port company, Dow &amp; Co.</p> <p>Although smaller than Silva &amp; Cosens, Dow &amp; 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</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>Dow’s attractive and distinctive drier finish is the recognisable hallmark of the wines from this great Port house</p> <p> </p>

<p></p><p>Monte das Bagas de Ouro White Wine is aromatically very intense, exuberant with an apricot expression... striking and very seductive. It makes you want to taste it. On the palate, a restless freshness, where lime stands out... marked acidity, which generates a lot of pleasure. It makes you want to try it again!</p>

<p></p><p>Alvarinho Pet Nat is a sparkling wine inspired in the ancestral method, a wine with natural movement and elegant bubbling</p> <p>The vinification process, with little intervention, resorts to the end of the first alcoholic fermentation in bottle, without resorting to dégorgement or sugar addition.</p> <p>Innovation has led Soalheiro to wines that in the past seemed unlikely to experiment with the Alvarinho grape variety. This Pet Nat confirms the variety’s elasticity and proposes the relaxed discovery of a light and youthful sparkling wine</p> <p></p>
