Vintage Port
Was £179
New Year Sale Offer Only £125

The Warre's 1970 Vintage Port, released to commemorate the house's 300th anniversary, is a distinguished example from one of the most celebrated Port vintages of the 20th century. This wine showcases Warre's signature style—elegant, floral, and refined—offering a compelling alternative to the more robust expressions from producers like Graham's or Fonseca.​

Tasting notes highlight its deep garnet core with a subtle browning rim, indicative of its maturity. The nose is fragrant and perfumed, featuring aromas of violets and red fruits. On the palate, it delivers rich, voluptuous flavors backed by firm tannins, with a bitter-sweet dark chocolate concentration and a lingering plummy finish. …

White Colheita Port in Gift Box
50cl Bottle
92 Points - Wine Advocate

The Quinta da Devesa 1969 White Colheita Port is a treasure of the Douro Valley—an extraordinarily rare white port aged for nearly 50 years in seasoned oak casks before bottling in 2024. This single-harvest, long-aged expression is the result of decades of careful maturation under oxidative conditions in the estate’s traditional hillside cellars. Made from native white grapes such as Côdega de Larinho, Rabigato, Malvasia Fina, and others, it embodies the character and complexity that only time can create.

In the glass, it presents a radiant deep amber-gold hue with greenish olive edges, a visual hallmark of advanced barrel aging. …

150cl Bottle
Bottled and Shipped by Warre

A late release LBV bottled and Shipped by Warre but rebranded for the French market as J.W. Hart.
Notes: An attractive bronze colour, looking fully mature; 40% opaque. A nose of sweet cherry, spiced beautifully with a grating of mace. Very mellow on the palate, fully mature with flavours of baked apple, cinnamon and cloves. Warm and spiced fruit. A little spearmint shows on the aftertaste, but quickly fades to a gentle black tea and apple finish. Fully mature Port, sliding gently into its place in history.

Quinta de Vargellas Vintage Port Oporto Bottled

This Taylor's Vintage Port from the good 1969 vintage is mature now. This is an excellent choice for both enthusiasts and collectors, offering a taste of the exceptional craftsmanship and terroir of the Douro Valley.

Tasting notes
Lovely tawny colour with a brick hue. The nose shows violets and sweet cherry with hints of wintergreen. On the palate it may not be as sweet as the earlier Ports from the 60s, but that is very much a good thing. Improved with air time, and by the end could almost detect some rich and sweet stewed fruits and Christmas spices balanced by the warming alcohol. …

Single Harvest Tawny Port
Presented in an original Taylor's gift case

During its five decades of ageing in oak casks, this wine has taken on an attractive pale mahogany colour with olive amber highlights. On the nose, the wine displays fine oaky aromas and complex spicy, nutty, cigar box notes against a warm mellow background of butterscotch and molasses. The smooth velvety palate is lifted by a crisp acidity which gives the wine an attractive freshness despite its age. The finish is immensely long with rich, spicy, black pepper flavours lingering on the palate. Finely constituted and beautifully balanced, this rare Single Harvest Port would be an exceptional tribute to any anniversary. …

Reviews:
Lovely dark caramel colour, with some truffle and tea notes, edges of olive and green fruits (fig). The maturity on the palate is obvious, again with fabulous sweetness and brown sugar richness, Muscovado and walnuts, but the hallmark of the fresh orange and lemon acidity plays against that and the coffee and walnut cake sweetness and richness. …
