<p>All ports at Quinta de la Rosa are made in the ‘house style’ namely slightly drier without any cloying sweetness that is often associated with ports. As in their wines, they search for balance, harmony and equilibrium from their vineyards and they try to enable the grapes to express themselves in the bottle. The La Rosa style is to make well defined wines without too much extraction and tannin</p>

<p>Quinta de La Rosa Colheita 2012 Port Wine is a product of Quinta de la Rosa, nestled in the Douro region. This Port Wine exemplifies a high-quality vintage, handpicked from the best harvests. The estate practices sustainable farming, with the grapes manually selected before being foot-trodden in granite lagares, following traditional methods.<br /><br />The principal grape varieties used are Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Sousão, Tinta Roriz, and in some versions Tinta Barroca. These high-quality grapes are grown in Category A vineyards, on steep slopes along the Douro River, up to about 500 meters in altitude.<br /><br />After fermentation, the wine is aged for at least seven years in classic wooden barrels, some of which are over 100 years old. This lengthy period of wood maturation bestows upon the Colheita a complex character that is elegant and well-balanced, combining the youthful energy of the fruit with tertiary nuances of dried fruit, spices, and floral notes.<br /><br />The wine's aroma is a medley of licorice, dark chocolate, vanilla, dried fruits, black cherry, plum, and toffee. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with a good viscosity, balanced sweetness with acidity, and a long, elegant, and fresh finish.<br /><br />This Colheita pairs well with chocolate desserts, Black Forest cake, mature or blue cheeses, foie gras, or can simply be enjoyed pure as a digestif. Although it is ready for consumption, this Colheita has the potential to evolve until 2032, maintaining its freshness and elegance, making it ideal for refined tasting or as a gift.</p>

<p></p><p><span>Quinta de la Rosa  Tawny 30 year old has a beautiful amber colour showing its age well.  The long, slow maturation in old wooden pipes (550L barrels) has given this magnificent wine enormous elegance and complexity. On the nose, slightly dried fruit aromas with touches of balsamic vinegar, coffee and exotic wood are just some of its components.  On the palate, it is simply delicious, almost light but with incredible intensity of flavour, soft, mouth filling with great persistence.</span></p>
