#16 TOP 100 CELLAR SELECTIONS 2020. This impressively structured wine shows a perfect balance between its powerful, spicy fruits and firm tannins. Dense tones of dark berries and smoke are rich and flavorful, bringing the wine to a perfect conclusion. It’s immensely ageworthy. Drink from 2030.

Varietal Port Blend

Country Portugal

Benefiting from both the hot, dry Iberian climate as well as brisk Atlantic winds, Portugal is a perfectly situated country for vineyard cultivation and wine production. With a wine making history which stretches back thousands of years, it comes as little surprise that wine plays an important role in the cultural identity and practices of the country. The Phoenicians, the Carthaginians, the Greeks and the Romans all had a hand in forming Portugal as an important center for wine production, and over the millennia, this resulted in each region of this beautiful part of Europe producing its own distinctive wines easily identifiable and separate from neighboring Spain's. Today, the varied terroir and climate across Portugal allows a great range of wines to be made each year, from the fresh and dry Vinho Verde wines to the famous and widely drunk fortified Port wines, and many in between.

Region Porto

The magnificent city of Porto - the capital of Portugal - is located near the mouth of the beautiful Douro river, in the beating heart of the Douro wine region. The Douro region has been regarded as one of the most important viticultural region of Europe for several centuries, and was the third region to be officially recognized and protected as a wine region, with laws having been passed in the mid 18th century regarding its status. Porto is, of course, most famous for the production of Port wine, an aromatic and slightly viscous tawny colored fortified wine, with a fascinating history of seafaring, experimentation and innovation. The vineyards used in the region for the production of Porto's wines contain up to a hundred different grape varietals, resulting in the wide range of Port wines on offer today.

The 2018 Vintage Port is a roughly equal blend of Touriga Franca and Touriga Nacional with 10% a field blend from old vines and a smaller dollop of Sousáo, coming in with 103 grams of residual sugar. My favorite of the three Sogrape offerings just now—if the Sandeman comes into good balance a decade on, it might be the winner—this is an elegant Port with stunning fruit and excellent structure too. Perfectly put together and seeming drier than its statistics would suggest, this is a potential beauty. It is more expressive than its siblings (including the Offley and Sandeman). If it is not as rich as the Sandeman, it is fresher, more precise and more lifted. It should hold well. When tasted the next day, it tightened up with additional aeration, but it was still approachable. I loved its purity, in particular, at that point. It now has to prove it can evolve and age. It should. There were 19,333 bottles produced. This was tasted from a tank sample in a half bottle.

Touriga Franca is the main variety here (45%), balanced by Touriga Nacional (40%), old vines (10%) and Sousão (5%). Deep, dark, opaque in colour; restrained, tight-knit with underlying brooding tannins and ripe cherry fruit; broad, ripe morello cherry fruit on the palate backed by ripe, expressive fine-grained tannins leading to a firm, tight-knit finish. This is the best Ferreira Vintage I have tasted for many a year and should be a long-term keeper. I would love to try it again in 20 years. 14,500 bottles declared. Drinking Window 2033 - 2065.

Polished and suave in feel, with a hint of dark tea curling up from the core of steeped plum, blackberry and black currant preserve flavors. Lots of juicy energy coiled up through the finish, where graphite and licorice-snap notes assert themselves. Touriga Nacional and Touriga Franca. Best from 2030 through 2045. 1,610 cases made, 200 cases imported.

The 2018 Vintage Port from Ferreira has a potent nose with dense black cherries, crushed violet, allspice and black pepper scents, touches of curry powder emerging with time. The palate is well balance with succulent, saturated tannins, a fine bead of acidity and a little more precision towards the finish compared directly against the Sandeman. Very spicy on the finish that lingers for 45+ seconds on the aftertaste. Give this 5-6 years in bottle.
