Description

Warre’s 2020 Vinhas Velhas Vintage Port – 350 Anniversary Edition

Warre’s 2020 Vinhas Velhas 350th Anniversary Edition Vintage Port is made from the magnificent old vines at two of Warre’s estates, made exclusively from deep-rooted, horse-ploughed, 80 to 100-year-old mixed vines – for the first time in Warre’s long history. These old mixed vines produced an average yield of just 310g per vine – meaning three vines were needed to produce one bottle of this Vintage Port, when typically, it requires just one vine. The wine is intensely fruit-driven with unparalleled concentration and elegance that belies the conditions of the year. Just 2,400 bottles (75cl) are being released En Primeur in 2022.

Black, saturated colour with a very tiny purple rim. Dark, savoury, rocky, peppery and mineral intense black fruit is the first impression. Becomes more scented in the glass, that wild herbal plant (cistus) that you get in the Douro. Becoming more fragrant with violets and wonderfully aromatic in a dark and elegant way. Nothing raisined at all just incredible concentration. Fresh, floral, smells both purple and rocky. Smells of the Douro. So much aromatic complexity. Herbal, balsamic. Floral. More open than the Graham's at this stage. 'Classic Warre, typically more feminine style.' Tannins are like firmly pressed velvet. Deeply elegant. Then stone dust. The tannins are more seductive than the very elegant aroma. So rich and deep. Drink 2032-2070
