Description
Made from high-quality wines of the Quinta de Ervamoira by blending harvests of different years.
The new wines make it robust and fresh while the oldest wines give it complexity and ‘lineage’. Its characteristic aroma and palate are the result of the artistry achieved by the head of the tasting room.
Ramos Pinto holds the largest proportion of vineyards in relation to its production, giving it a high degree of control over viticultural methods and harvest timing. The house tends 187 hectares of prime vineyards in the Alto Corgo and Douro Superior areas of the famed Douro region, the mountainous valley formed by the Douro River and its tributaries.
Founded in 1880 by Adriano Ramos Pinto, this Port House has always had a pioneering spirit – from the distinctive and stylish ‘art nouveau’ advertising from the 1900s to the continuing wide ranging vineyard research with results that have benefited the whole port trade.
Champagne Louis Roederer, now the majority shareholder, perpetuates this philosophy and ensures continuity in a company renowned for wine-making excellence.
Tasting Notes
Nose: A well-rounded, generous aroma with balance and a hint of wine.
Palate: Fruit aromas include orange, apricot and plum. Vanilla and old Port wine casks make up its woody aromas. This is a fruity tawny variety. In the mouth, one can still taste the fresh fruit surrounded by the ageing in wood.
Finish: A good structure and perfect balance between fruit and alcohol.
