Vieira de Sousa - 10 year White Port
The 10yr White Port is a highly aromatic and complex wine that takes advantage of prolonged skin contact and an oxidative process of a long time in oak barrels, in order to create a remarkable treat from the local white varietals. A field blend of Malvasia Fina, Rabigato, Verdelho, and Gouveio come into the cellar after a hand-harvest on steeply sloped sites, for an old-fashioned foot crushing in giant concrete lagares to begin fermentation. Once fortified with grape brandy and then moved to large and old oak vats, the wine rests for many years, and the final bottling is a blend of vintages that average to at least ten years.
The brilliant gold that shines forth from the glass is packed with a raisined and nutty aroma, leading to a sweet and fresh palate of fig, golden raisin, ginger, and pear. An incredible structure with acidity and weight, this wine pairs perfectly with creamy cheeses, thick chutneys, and nuts.
