White port is one of our staff favourite drinks at Regional Wines and this one is a deliciously well balanced blend of white Portuguese grapes, Gouveio, Malvasia Fina, Moscatel Galego and Rabigato, often including other lesser known varieties as well. It is the Moscatel that expresses itself most in many white ports, with flavoursome hints of caramelised orange peel and zesty citrus sweetness. 

Deliciously good. Serve on ice or lightly chilled in a real glass. No thimbles, please.

The grapes used in the production of Dow?s Fine Ruby were a blend of traditional Portuguese varieties from the Douro Valley, such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Barroca, Tinta Roriz and Tinto Cao. Dow?s Fine Ruby was aged in seasoned oak casks at our lodges in Vila Nova de Gaia for an average of 3 years, and bottled when ready to drink. Exuberant youthful fruit flavours make it perfect for informal drinking.

A fortified wine from Duriense, Northern Portugal made from an assemblage of grapes including Tinta Roriz and Tinta Barroca. As a tawny, it has been aged in oak oxidatively and will show the sumptuous dried fruit flavours that this creates.

Character

This Fine Tawny has fervent fans around the world who love it for its approachability and its caramel nuttiness. And who are we to argue?

Style

Young, vibrant wines are expertly blended and oak aged for up to three years. Fine Tawny has a fruitiness of youth and a nuttiness from the casks, while the ageing makes it lighter in appearance than ruby ports. A not-so-dark horse.

Goes well with

Creamier desserts like rice pudding as well as dried fruit and nuts. Pairs brilliantly with after-lunch card games.

This Ruby Syrah is sweet, exuberant & friendly, just like the Winston, the Ashworth family's beloved Labrador.

Showcasing a rich, silky palate bursting with stewed fruits, chocolate and spice.
