Niepoort VV
Very Old Tawny Port

Niepoort VV is one of the rarest and most extraordinary wines produced in the Douro—an exceptionally old tawny blend crafted from casks that have been ageing in the Niepoort lodges for many decades. Deep amber-mahogany in colour, it opens with a profound, richly layered bouquet of walnut, dried fig, orange peel, polished wood and fragrant spice. The aromatics are intense, refined and endlessly complex, showing the unmistakable character of ancient cask-aged Port.

On the palate, VV is concentrated yet ethereal, delivering a seamless wave of caramelised fruit, dried apricot, roasted nuts and hints of molasses and balsamic warmth. …

Very Very Old White Port
in Original Silk-lined Case
50cl Bottle
18/20 - Jancis Robinson

A very rare and very old white port blended from two casks (1900 and 1960). Golden white color; with intense aroma of honey and dried fruit, highlighting the almond and fig. Excellent dry port flavour: fat, soft, velvety and very persistent. Crown jewel of Coimbra de Mattos's family.

Coimbra de Mattos, a Douro family committed to viticulture and wine production since many years ago – a testimony of that commitment is the medal awarded to Christovan Ayres de Mattos, grand-uncle of the current owners of the family company, in the Exposition Universelle de 1900 (Paris International Exhibition of 1900). …

Royal Corregidor 20 Year Old Oloroso

Appearance
Very deep yet transparent blacky brown fading through oak gall ink to amber at the rim, legs.

Nose
There is a distinct aroma of age here with considerable depth and complexity. The nose is dry and serious with lots of old oak and walnuts and even a hint of spice, yet traces of fruit and cinder toffee from the PX. There is even the slightest trace of licorice. Such complexity can only come from very old soleras.

Palate
The first material sign of sweetness starts here with old PX richness but the wine is a good bit less sweet than a Cream. The PX is probably there to balance out any astringency from the very old Oloroso, and there is certainly not much astringency now; …

Royal Esmeralda 20 Year Old Amontillado

Nose: elegant, fragrant and rather creamy, with sweet toffee, dried apricot and lots of almonds. Round and honeyed. There are nice overtones of the original Fino, with old flor and a refreshing lemony note. Hints of Gianduja, cinnamon and varnished oak, and the lightest whiff of smoke.

Palate: a fairly high acidity at first (lemons, oranges), slowly becoming rounder with marzipan notes, lots of nutty notes (almonds, hazelnuts, cashew) and a warm oaky glow. Fades on light pepper and earthy / umami qualities. Very pleasant and rather complex.
