NV Confraria do Vinho do Porto White

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Bottled 2014. Drunk at the Confraria do Vinho do Porto inauguration ceremony, this is the blended port made from contributions from members.

Deep lemon yellow colour, 20% opaque. Honey and lemon nose, slightly heavy. Slightly waxy texture with bitter lemon oil dominating the flavours. Good body. Harsh and hot aftertaste, with a sweet onion finish of good length. 83/100. 26-Jun-2016.
Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
