Sparkling Wine and White Port Offers

White Port and Tonic cocktails are the number one summer drink in Portugal. This summer we have been working with our Portuguese producers to offer the biggest range in the UK.

We are offering up to 20% off our range of white ports spanning affordable entry level wines to ultra-rare vintage white ports.

White Port

White Port cocktails are THE aperitif drink of the Portuguese. If you have sat in the banks of the Douro river on a hot summer's day and have not enjoyed a white port with tonic you haven't really experienced the refreshing side of port wine! White Port can be enjoyed chilled on its own, as an aperitif, or with a twist of lemon accompanied by roasted almonds, olives or dry biscuits. But our favourite options are cocktails, when white port is the main component blended with different ingredients to form fascinating and refreshing flavour combinations.
