Description and Reviews:
This 30-year White Port from Devesa is a field blend made from vines that are at least 50 years old. An aged white Port wine that presents a very complex aromatic bouquet, with great aromas of evolution such as balsamic notes, dried fruits, candied orange peel, raisins, and dried apricots. It is a fantastic, fresh, juicy white Port wine that ends with a mouthwatering acidity. Its significantly superior complexity accounts for most of the flavour difference. With its seemingly never-ending finale, this is simply stunning and closes the sale. A beautiful Port that you will enjoy savouring in your glass.
Serving & Food Pairing:
White Ports are ready to drink and do not require decanting. Best enjoyed chilled at 12-13ºC on its own as an aperitif, or paired with rich starters such as mushroom risotto. With a freshness beyond age, White Port is also ideal with crème brulee or a spicy apple crumble.
A historic vineyard, Quinta da Devesa was already included as a quality grape growing plot in the first map of the Douro Demarcated Region. The most important history of the property began in 1941 when Jose Fortunato Junior and his wife, Antonia Soares Fortunato acquired Quinta da Devesa and decided to pour their lifetime passion for port wine into the property through great investment in port and, later, dry wine production.
Over seventy years later, harvests of superior quality have been kept and stored in wooden casks in the winery cellars. These are used today to produce the famed tawny and aged white port blends alongside some exceptional colheita ports dating back to 1944.
How to store your White Port:
The bottle should be kept upright and protected from direct sunlight and heat.
