Product Description
Tasting Notes:
This fuller-bodied, sweet wine showcases rich flavours of black currant, raisin, and fig, creating a deep, fruity profile with a luxurious texture. Delicate floral hints of violets and subtle mocha add layers of complexity. With medium-plus acidity and medium-plus tannins, it has a balanced structure that offsets its sweetness. Ideal pairings include indulgent desserts like chocolate, cake, and caramel, as well as nuts, berries, cherries, and peach for a fruity contrast. For cheeses, look to bold bleu such as Roquefort and Stilton, or pair with coffee to enhance its rich, mocha undertones.
About Quinta do Infantado
Quinta do Infantado is a historic winery in Portugal's Douro Valley, established in 1816 and family-owned for generations. Known for producing high-quality estate-grown Ports and table wines, it stands out for its "meio-seco" (medium-dry) style Ports, offering a more balanced sweetness compared to traditional Ports. The winery's vineyards, planted on steep terraced slopes, are farmed sustainably and organically, focusing on indigenous grape varieties like Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Roriz. With a minimal intervention winemaking approach, Quinta do Infantado emphasizes the natural character of the grapes and Douro terroir. Their range includes Ruby, Tawny Ports, and dry wines, and the winery is respected for its craftsmanship, tradition, and commitment to sustainability.
