Portal 20 Year Old Aged Tawny Port NV

Pale amber in colour, this Port has a great fragrance, character and length of flavour, with plum and orange notes, but also walnuts and almonds. In the mouth it’s elegant, and very complex leading to an excellent final.

Viticulture

The Douro is the oldest and one of the most important wine regions in the world. Located in Northeast Portugal, within the Douro River basin, surrounded by craggy mountains that give it very particular soil and climacteric characteristics, this region spreads over a total area of approximately 250 000 hectares and is divided into three sub-regions that differ greatly from each other not only as regards the weather but also for socio-economical reasons.

Quinta do Portal properties are located in the Cima-Corgo subregion, an area that has been showing very good balance regarding its resistance to climate changes. The vineyards are spread by 5 estates - Quinta do Portal, Quinta do Confradeiro, Quinta dos Muros, Quinta da Abelheira and Quinta das Manuelas - in a total of 100 ha under vines. The different altitudes and solar exposures and the variety of grape varieties allow us to produce excellent grapes that produce a diversity of wines of great quality.

Hand picked and transported in small cases. Harvested in September/October each year.
