Quinta do Infantado White Port
19.5% alcohol. Wonderful golden bronze color. An orange wine! It’s fermented in lagar on skins. Lovely aromatics. Grapes, honey, barley sugar and almond. The palate is powerful and not overly sweet (44 g/l rs) with some richness from the alcohol and notes of almonds, pear, apricot and honey.
Quinta do Infantado Late Bottled Vintage Port, 2018
19.5% alcohol. Bottled in 2019. The soul of this wine is an old north-facing vineyard. Lovely complexity on the nose with notes of leather, herbs, sweet black cherries and lanolin. The palate is fresh and supple with sweet black fruits, a touch of plum, and even some mint. It’s lush and fruit driven with good structure. Drier in style (65 g/l rs) with some freshness and fruit purity
Quinta do Infantado Colheita Tawny Port, 2011
The Infantado Colheita is bottled to drink now. The port has a drier style because the Quinta uses 30% less brandy than other producers. The Colheita brings a soft, dry elegance to the mouth. Soft nuts and raisins with a very dry finish.Lovely freshness here: mint and spice with a hint of pepper with some berry fruits. The palate is bright and vivid with nice intensity, showing some grip and density.
