    Overview

    Ramos Pinto Adriano White Reserva Port

     
    Amber yellow colour, the nose is fine, intense and quite complex, blending tropical aromas with crystallized orange, plus hints of balsam and spices. The palate is full bodied but elegant, well balanced with a long lasting finish.

    Porto White Reserva is made from the Douro Demarcated Region's finest white grape varieties, and results from the most careful selection of wines, which have on average been aged in our cellars in oak barrels for seven years.

    Food Matching:
    Serve chilled (between 8-12 degrees) as an aperitif or with a foie gras starter. Alternatively with desserts containing nuts, egg-based sweets and pastries, ice cream or strong cheese.

    Grape Variety
    Codega, Malvasia Fina, Viozinho, Rabigato

    Technical Characteristics:
    ABV - 19.14%

    History:
    Founded in 1880 by brothers Adriano and Antonio, this Port house has always had a pioneering spirit. In the early 20th century it became noted for its innovative and enterprising commercial strategies including the distinctive art nouveau advertising campaign.

    Among Port producers, Ramos Pinto enjoys the distinction of holding the largest proportion of vineyards in relation to its production, giving them a high degree of control over viticultural methods at harvest time. The House tends 187 hectares (460 acres) of prime vineyards in the Alto Corgo and Douro Superior areas of the famed Douro region, the mountainous valleys formed by the Douro River and its tributaries.

    All situated in the areas of the Cima-Corgo and the Douro Superior, the four quintas or estates that make up Ramos Pinto's holdings are:

    Quinta do Bom Retiro: in Pinhão, planted exclusively with red varieties.

    Quinta da Urtiga: adjacent to Bom Retiro.

    Quinta da Ervamoira: in the far upper Douro, by the Côa river near the Spanish border. Here the grapes grow in dry semi-desert conditions.

    Quinta dos Bons Ares: a cooler site with some of the highest vineyards in the Douro. Both red and white varieties ripen here with great natural acidity and fresh flavours. 

    The award-winning 10, 20 and 30 year old Tawnies are produced at Quinta da Ervamoira and Bom Retiro respectively.
