Quinta do Portal Fine Ruby Porto

Vinum Lector Staff — Wed, 03 Jun 2020 09:35:22 +0000

Quinta Do Portal has been producing Port wine in the Pinhão valley for more than 100 years, but it has been in the Douro at least since 1477, when the King D. Afonso V grants a portion of land (Comenda de Oliveira) to the noble D. Afonso de Mansilha. Later in 1756, Frei João de Mansilha played a very important role in the demarcation of the Douro and its implementation. Portal Fine Ruby is elegant, lively and with plenty of rich young fruit. Aged for three years in large wooden vats keeping it as fresh and protected from oxidation as possible. For more info, visit Quinta do Portal website.
