Quinta da Vacaria 20 anos Port 4.5L
概要
This 20 year old Tawny Port from Quinta da Vacaria was produced from the Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz and Tinta Barroca grape varieties. Golden in colour with red nuances, it has a complex and very elegant aroma, with notes of ripe fruit and nuts, such as walnuts and hazelnuts, and hints of cinnamon and coffee. The palate is rich, smooth and slightly sweet, with great balance and a long, elegant and velvety finish.
The Quinta da Vacaria, one of the oldest in the region (first record dates from 1616), is located on the banks of the Douro River near the city of Régua, in the heart of the oldest Demarcated Region in the world, the Douro. The Rabelo boats used to dock at the estate quayside to load the casks full of Port wine and transport them to Gaia, at the mouth of the river, where they were sold in bulk to the whole world, leaving behind their hidden identity, since these wooden casks were not even marked with the producer's seal. At their destination, the wine was bottled and labelled with the brand of the foreign merchants who bought them, however, some of them came to gain a lot of prestige.
