Quinta do Portal 2020 Vintage Report

2020 was a strange and a very challenging year!

There was a lot of pressure in the vineyard to control diseases. This, of course, forced the introduction of a greater concentration of treatments in the vineyard.

Quinta dos Muros, 97 Pts (Mark Squires in www.robertparker.com)

The 2018 Vintage Port Quinta dos Muros is a roughly equal blend of Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Tinta Roriz aged for a year in very old barrels. It comes in with 111 grams per liter of residual sugar.
