Quinta de la Rosa
Juicy star Douro red from the hugely talented Sophia Bergqvist. Touriga Nacional & Franca, Tinto Roriz et al. eRobertParker "When first seen, this was a big overachiever... it is still beautiful. The pure and intense fruit is simply delicious, but the structure means that this doesn't just seem like a candied fruit bomb... a cut above what wines like this often achieve. It's a "summer red" style, but it adds a bit of distinction. I continue to love this delicious Tinto..."

Amber colour with greenish nuances. Intense nose of great complexity, standing-out the dried fruit aromas, harmoniously combined with vanilla and honey touches. In the mouth, it is wonderfully balanced, unctuous and extremely concentrated. Sublime and endless finish. Gold Medal at the 2013 Concours Mondial de Bruxelles

Ramos Pinto
Just a touch of maturity gives this some interesting layers of complexity. Remains fresh though - a lively aperitif served properly chilled. I also forgot to mention the complexity here lies in one of the reserve wines being from 1964! They really are geniuses at blending historical wines…

Graham's
This white Port is a revelation; fresh, quite dry and moreish. Flavours of tangy lime, salt, cream, almond and grapefruit make this a great aperitif. You can even mix this with tonic, ice, lemon and mint for a super-quaffable alternative to a gin & tonic.

Quinta de la Rosa
jancisrobinson.com 16.5/20 "50% Touriga Nacional, 30% Touriga Franca, 15% Tinta Roriz, and 5% Sousão all from La Rosa’s estate, mostly from the Lamelas vineyard planted by Tim Bergqvist more than 30 years ago. Matured for 12 months in mostly used (70%) French oak casks. Very dark, almost black, with a purplish rim. Rich, generous and dark-fruited, open and fragrant and with unmistakable Douro character, which for me is not sweetness of fruit but an impression of rocks – the dark/stony character – and the local cistus wild flowers, which gives a subtle floral/herbal quality. This is juicy, medium-bodied and with already quite smooth tannins. A recipe for early drinking but with enough structure to age for a few years. Nicely dry finish on a wine that is hard not to like.

Blandy's
A unique blend only made by Blandy’s, combining the islands Bual & Malmsey varietals, Blandy's 5 year old Reserva was aged in American oak casks in the traditional 'Canteiro' system. This comprises of the gentle heating of the wine in the lofts of the lodges in Funchal. Over the years the wine is transferred from the top floors to the middle floors and eventually to the ground floor where it is cooler. The wine underwent racking and fining before the blend was assembled and bottled. Decanter 2020 Gold Medal winner

Blandy's
Verdelho ripens more easily than Sercial and therefore lends itself to producing a medium dry wine. With age the wines develop an extraordinary smoky complexity.

Black/purple colour. A lovely complex nose with excellent sweet and rich fruit aromas such as black cherry, black currant and blackberry. On the palate it is packed with solid, structured, rich and intense black fruit flavours and an admirably long finish. A fabulous way to end a lunch or dinner, Graham's 2004 Quinta dos Malvedos pairs wonderfully with chocolate desserts, such as chocolate mousse.

Textura Wines
jancisrobinson.com "Smoky nose with gorse aromas. Pure and exciting." Parker 90/100 "...produced with 50% Encruzado and 50% Bical. It has 12.5% alcohol and a pH of 3.35. It feels a little reductive, with aromas of white fruit and flowers, mellow acidity and a soft texture. This comes from younger vines, was fermented in stainless steel and matured with fine lees for seven months. The fermentation was very slow, so it went through malolactic fermentation, which lowered the acidity in the wine."

Quinta de la Rosa
Jancisrobinson.com 17.5/20 “30% Touriga Nacional, 30% Touriga Franca, and 40% old-vine field blend. Foot-trodden in granite lagares for an evening before being transferred to stainless-steel vats for fermentation. Matured for 20 months in new (50%) and used (50%) French oak casks. Very dark core with purplish rim. Intensely aromatic with pure black fruit and Touriga's floral aromas including violets and also bergamot. Lightly spiced and beautifully fragrant yet not lacking the dark, rocky Douro signature. Firm but already smooth tannins with a suggestion of dark chocolate on the finish. A finely modulated wine that you could drink fairly soon but also keep for a decade or more. Polished but still unmistakably Douro. (JH)”

Quinta de la Rosa
jancisrobinson.com 17/20 "Old vines, 60% Viosinho, 30% Rabigato, 10% Arinto. The wine was partially fermented in stainless steel with the remainder of the fermentation in French oak. It spent a further 8 months in oak... Smells richer and more complex than the straight La Rosa Branco, with a marked aroma of herbs and white flowers as well as all that pure citrus, and a suggestion of oak. The oak is a little more evident on the palate but beautifully integrated to build an elegant white wine that has a good core of fruit as well as layers and texture that you notice most on aftertaste. Already complex but should become more so with another year or two in the bottle though it is so well balanced you could drink this now. (JH)"

The Mol-B Vinho Branco Frisante shows gentle, floral and fruity aromas, whilst the palate is soft with a sparkle and bright grapey fruit with a touch of fresh mango and citrus to the fresh, delightful finish. Excellent as an aperitif and also pairs well with fish, shellfish, salads and grilled vegetables.

Vilacetinho
Some fizz (relatively modest), low (10%) alcohol and a bit of sugar (only 5 grams per litre– barely over the legal “dry” limit and rather low for this style). It is a blend of 40% Arinto, 20% Azal, 20% Avesso and 20% Loureiro. This is the winery’s entry-level wine and it offers amazing value. We've made the decision to offer the wine in both cork and screwcap. This is the cork closure version.

jancisrobinson.com 16.5/20 "50% Viosinho, 20% Códega do Larinho, 20% Gouveio, 10% Rabigato. The wine was fermented in small stainless-steel vats, with some lots barrel-aged in used French oak for 5 months. Purest of citrus and white fruits with the merest hint of creamy softness from the oak to balance that crisp, mouth-watering and zesty citrus on the palate. A wake-up call of a wine. Zingy freshness balanced by that slight roundness in the mouth. Long, juicy finish. Well judged. (JH)"

A perfect tawny combining great complexity and harmony. This is the master blender’s quest for perfection, capturing the perfect balance between young and aged port wines being matured for over 20 years in seasoned oak casks that contain 543 litres of port, only being released once they have reached perfection.

jancisrobinson.com 16/20 "Jaen, Alfrocheiro, Tinto Roriz and Touriga Nacional from different vineyards. Gentle and lively – bitter red-cherry flavours. Nice grip on the end together with a certain sourness." Parker 90/10 "... a sensation of a little more ripeness despite the lower alcohol. It’s from a warmer year and has a different quality of tannins. It's also a blend of the younger vines and was fermented in stainless steel and matured in used oak barrels and vats. It's slightly more rustic and has a bitter twist in the finish."

Simply wonderful aged tawny port from the masters of the style, Graham's. Aromas of coffee, caramel and mulberry dominate the nose and there is a lovely ruby colour in the centre of the tawny, showing that it is young and fruity. Great dessert wine.

Quinta de la Rosa
One of the finest bargains in Port. First rate, artisan, trodden by foot in granite lagares. All grapes A quality - the port region is classified from A to F. Less sweet than most commercial Port. Robert M Parker 92/100 "a stunning example of what can be achieved and found in non-vintage port blends. This small port lodge has turned out a terrific, full-bodied, garnet/ruby-colored wine with a big, chocolatey, black-cherry, cedary nose, full-bodied, unctuously-textured flavors, and gobs of fruit and richness, as well as an off-dry, impressive finish." Jancis Robinson MW "Mid purplish crimson. Light meaty nose with some real interest and Douro character. Real edge and spice here. These top-quality ruby ports must be some of the best-value wines in the world! Peppery and not too sweet. Sheer pleasure..."
