Product Notes

Warre's Cavadinha Vintage Port wine, a prestigious offering from Portugal's Douro Valley, exemplifies unrivalled sophistication. This extraordinary port proudly showcases a vivid ruby hue and a complex aroma imbued with luscious red fruits, spicy undertones, and an underpinning of oak. On the palate, it's an exquisite combination of robustness and elegance, with flavours of ripe berries, dark chocolate, and a hint of exotic spice. Its structure is superb with strong tannin content, ensuring longevity. The finish is remarkably satisfying, leaving a hint of melodic sweetness that lingers. A perfect companion for rich desserts or blue cheese.

Tasting Notes

Very deep colour; practically opaque with a crimson rim. Intense and brooding black fruit aromas marry with distinctive rockrose and freshly picked mint fragrance. Gorgeous fresh notes of mango. Delicious ripe plum and blackberry flavours; very compact and mouth-filling but simultaneously smooth and elegant. Beautiful chocolate notes on the lingering finish. Irresistible now but with a long life ahead of it.
