Portugal Region Report

Reserve Lagrima
White Port

Quevedo is an incredible, innovative producer that is very highly regarded amongst port aficionados. Family owned for over 100 years, the Douro Valley estate is now in the capable hands of Oscar and Claudia Quevedo.

Porto Lágrima is a richer style of Port, the sweetest wine in the category of White Port. Its name Lágrima/ Tear came about thanks to the tears that flow into the glass when we shake it, due to its high sugar content. It is a more intense, honeyed and aromatic Port.

With a predominant golden colour and liqueur texture, it has absolutely irresistible honey and floral aromas. It should be served cooler than other Ports, between 8 and 10ºC and is perfect to accompany desserts or to drink alone. …
