Single Quinta Vintage Port, Douro
Library Release

Quinta de Ervamoira Vintage Port from Ramos Pinto is produced only in exceptional years from the best plots of Quinta de Ervamoira, located in the Douro Superior. The total area of the quinta is 234 ha with 178 ha under vine and an average age of 30 years. Ervamoira lies in a rocky area on the banks of the river Côa, where the weather is hot and dry, adding density and body to the wines, resulting in full-bodied and highly concentrated wines. The altitude, ranging from between 110 to 340 metres, ensures balance and preserves freshness.

Vintage Port, Douro

Quinta de La Rosa is a small estate in the heart of the Port wine-growing region in Alto Douro, near Pinhao, owned and operated by the Bergqvist family.

The Quinta and its vineyards were given to the Bergqvist family as a Christening present by the Feuerheerds, who established the property in 1906.

It remains one of the few Single Quinta where the vineyards start at the bank of the Douro and rise 450 meters to the towering top of the mountain. From the river's edge to the top, one passes through 11 different microclimates. This gives La Rosa great flexibility to add variety and complexity to its Ports. …

'Nacional' Vintage Port, Douro
In Presentation Case

The 2004 Noval Nacional is a wonderful 2004 vintage Port wine. We are thrilled to be able to offer the Nacional 2004. Christian fell in love with the wine after harvest, so the wine was declared but not released. Kept instead under the watchful eye of Technical Director Antonio Agrellos to see how it developed. Considering the pedigree, it comes as no surprise that the wine lived up to their expectations, and so now, 10 years after the harvest, the 2004 is ready for release.

At Quinta do Noval the bud burst occurred mid-March followed by a quick flowering in the end of May due to high temperatures and lack of precipitation. …

Nino Negri, Valtellina

The Sfursat di Valtellina wine is a dry red “Passito” style wine and is made by making wine with dried grapes. The best bunches of Chiavennasca are selected and laid out on specially made mats in aerated purpose-built cellars to dry (similar to the process in Valpolicella for Amarone). The “breva” wind which blows through this region has historically assisted the production of the Sfursat wines. The grapes spend about 3 and a half months drying like this and towards the end of January (once the main winery tasks for the other wines are all finished) the grapes will have lost about 40% of their own weight, the sugars will have concentrated and the signature passito aroma will be present. …

Saint-Julien

The outstanding 2004 exhibits a deep ruby/purple colour, sweet black cherries intermixed with subtle herbal notes, roasted meats, juices, and black currants. In the mouth, it is expansive, savory, round. This is a great Langoa. A svelte, elegant nose with that animal/tarry note lending it character. Very fine definition. The palate is medium-bodied, very fresh though a little hard on the mid-palate. Lovely minerally, earthy finish.

Bomfim Vintage Port

This Port is made from the very best selection of fruit from Quinta do Bomfim in Pinhao. In classic years when Dow's declare a Vintage Port, Bomfim provides the backbone of these blends, but in the interim years the wines are usually of such a high quality that they are bottled as a single vineyard wine. The unique terroir and state of the art wine-making ensures that these wines are rich, opulent and with great tannic structure in true Dow's style.
