Vieira de Sousa 20 Year Old White Port

Vieira de Sousa 20 Year Old White Port is an aged white Port from the Douro Valley, made by a family Port house from Malvasia Fina, Rabigato, Verdelho and Gouveio. Old white Port is one of the rarest styles in the Douro, and this one is a bottle to open slowly, with people who like to talk about what is in their glass.

Tasting notes

Deep gold in the glass. A fine, elegant nose of walnut, orange peel and dried figs, with great aromatic complexity. The grapes are foot-trodden in stone lagares with long skin contact, and the lots, drawn from old wines, spend decades in large casks before blending. 20% vol.

Food pairing

Serve it with aged cheeses such as Queijo da Serra Velho, foie gras, toasted walnuts and dried figs, crème brûlée, or with toucinho do céu and other almond and egg sweets from Portuguese convents.
