A sweet, rich opulent wine, very seductive, with soft tannins on a pillow of ripe fruits. There is a jelly character to the texture. The wine is full and generous, with light hints of acidity and spice. 1 Note

Found only at Torbreck’s cellar door and a few Australian restaurants, this is 100% Muscat a Petit Grains. It’s fresh and springy, and tastes like buttercups, lemondrops, and other pretty things. Smells like perfume, and fresh-cut grass. A very good end to a very good evening. 1 Note

This firmly tannic wine shows rich fruit and warm black berry flavors spiced with fig juice and sultanas. It is a solid, chunky effort, needing a few months’ bottle age to achieve its full, impressive character. 1 Note

A soft ripe wine, with caramel aromas, dense perfumed fruit and considerable sweetness. It has good, intense flavors, but is not hugely fruity, showing maturity instead. This is in the same soft style as Cà lem’s tawny Ports. 1 Note

This comes from Quinta do Portal, well known for its Douro table wines. It is a fine, concentrated Port which shows tannins, fresh fruit and flavors of cherries. It is spoilt by the stalky aromas, but the taste is good compensation. 1 Note

The small Vale Dona Maria quinta in the Rio Torto valley is making a name for its vintage Ports. This Reserve follows in a serious, vintage style, with ripe, attractive perfumed fruit, and rich, complete flavors of sweet figs and chocolate. The aftertaste is dry, just slightly bitter. 1 Note

An easy drinking, ready to drink Port, with few pretensions. But it is soft and pleasant enough, with its flavors of gum arabic and soft, rich fruit. Some bitterness in the aftertaste lets the wine down. 1 Note

A jammy, herbal flavored wine, which is well enough balanced but seems to lack much intensity. The fruit is soft, sweet with black jam flavors and a light touch of acidity. With just an extra touch of concentration, this would be a classic wine. The name of the wine comes from the principal quinta owned by Barros near Pinhão. 1 Note

This is a dry style of wine, with a touch of cistus aroma and lean acidity. There are good tannins, some fresh black fruits, but it needs more intensity to really show up the herbal flavors. One of the many brand names of the Barros group, Feist has a history dating back to the 1830s. 1 Note
