    • Description

    The Quinta da Devesa 20-Year-Old White Port is a distinguished fortified wine from Portugal's Douro Valley, showcasing the estate's commitment to quality and tradition. Crafted from a blend of indigenous white grape varieties, including Côdega de Larinho, Rabigato, and Malvasia Fina, this port is aged for an average of 20 years in French oak casks, resulting in a complex and refined profile.

    In the glass, it exhibits a clean, golden hue with copper reflections. The nose is rich and layered, offering aromas of almonds, honey, and dried fruits. On the palate, it is soft and velvety, with flavors of caramelized citrus, candied orange peel, and a touch of spice, culminating in a long, elegant finish.

    This white port has garnered critical acclaim, receiving 92 points from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate. It is best served slightly chilled, between 10°C and 12°C, and pairs wonderfully with soft goat cheese, melon soup, or as an aperitif. Once opened, it maintains its quality for up to four months when stored properly.

    The Quinta da Devesa 20-Year-Old White Port stands as a testament to the potential of aged white ports, offering a harmonious balance of freshness and complexity that appeals to both seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers alike.

    ***92 Points - Mark Squires (eRobert Parker)***
    The 20 Years White Port is a field blend from old vines (50 plus years). It was bottled in January 2015 with 105 grams per liter of residual sugar. Fresh, lovely and delectable, this is perfectly balanced, focused and young. There isn't a lot of complexity early on (noting that this a 20), but it does show some more mature flavors as it airs and warms. Impeccably balanced, this is a beautiful 20 that lingers endlessly and tastes just great. Note that this was tasted from a 500-milliliter bottle. July 2015 (Mark Squires).

    Complex aromas of pecan skin and burnt orange peel, dried almost herb-leaf notes lead to a nutty fresh finish.
