The exceptional and extreme climatic conditions of 2016 create a final result of excellent quality. The wine is fresh and balanced with vibrant and intense fruit, and aromatically very expressive. The Quinta da Romaneira 2016 Vintage Port has a powerful tannic structure which promises a very good and long ageing potential. This year illustrates a full return to form for this great historic Port Wine Quinta. Only 12,000 bottles produced

Azienda Agricola Cortese on the Mediterranean island of Sicily is owned by renowned oenologist Stefano Girelli, who brought a near-abandoned estate back to health. This wine is made with the Catarratto grape variety, which is indigenous to the island. Aromatic and full of character it has notes of jasmine, herbs, and white peach along with a lively acidity.
