Description

The Calem 1994 Vintage Port has been matured to perfection in the Calem cellars and released in 2020. Ready to drink now but can develop further in the bottle for a few more years.

Tasting Notes
This Port wine has a dense, opaque crimson colour, rich black fruit and floral aromas, mineral and spicy nuances. Its palate has focused sweetness, supple black fruit, and fine tannins, with a balanced and harmonious structure.

Serving and Food pairing
Vintage Ports are best served slightly below modern room temperature: 16° to 18° C. This is the kind of wine that can be enjoyed now or aged even further to allow its flavors to develop and evolve over time. Whether you're sipping it on its own or pairing it with a rich dessert like chocolate mousse or a selection of aged cheeses, a vintage port is sure to be a memorable experience.

Calem, founded in 1859 by António Alves Cálem, is a renowned producer of Port wine from the Douro Valley in northern Portugal. With a long-standing tradition, Calem's cellars are located in Vila Nova de Gaia, known for ideal aging conditions. Calem's Ports have received numerous awards and accolades over the years, reflecting their quality and the skill of their winemakers. The shipper's commitment to quality and tradition has solidified its reputation as a leading producer of Port wine, enjoyed by enthusiasts around the world.

How to store your Vintage Port
Vintage Port, like all fine wines, prefers to remain undisturbed, lying on its side in a dark and at least slightly humid place at a stable temperature of between 10°C and 14°C to mature properly.

Reviews

The 1994 Calem Vintage Port has a deep garnet colour, with a hint of blue in the meniscus. Black fruits and blackberries dominate on the nose with tobacco and spirits. Beautiful in the mouth with alcohol and resolved tannins, great fruit still dominates. Lovely finish. 92/100 TC VWP 11/19
