Warre’s Quinta da Cavadinha 

One of the finest vineyards (all ‘A’ graded) in the Pinhao valley, one of the Upper Douro’s finest Port-growing regions. In declared vintage years, the best wines from Cavadinha are used as the principal component of Warre’s Vintages. In other good years a limited quantity of the Quinta’s wines are set aside for bottling after two years in cask. As with true vintage port, Quinta da Cavadinha is bottled without any fining or filtration and therefore should be decanted before drinking. It will also continue to age in the bottle for at least 20 years and often much longer.

Deep ruby color with notes of violets, dark cherries, blackberries, dried fruits, plums, cedar, cocoa, and warm spice. Medium- to full-bodied with silky, rounded tannins and a long finish.

Grapes: Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca (Francêsca), Tinta Roriz, Tinta Barroca, and Tinta Cão
