Andresen White Port 10 Jahre 0,5L 20%

Andresen Colheita Port Special Selection 1991/2021 0.5L 20% The port wine is named after the old port city of Porto in Portugal. Authentic port wine always comes from the surrounding picturesque Douro region, which has been growing wine for over 2000 years. The terraced slate slopes there characterize the landscape and provide the ideal breeding ground for the grapes. The JH Andresen winery in Porto is one of the few port wine producers that is 100% family-owned and thus maintains its independence. The small but fine family business was founded in 1845 and offers an impressive selection of old Colheita ports, some even dating back to the 19th century. Today, Carlos Flores dos Santos, the current owner of JH Andresen, continues the legacy of his predecessor with great respect. The careful production and maturation in large wooden barrels turns the precious port wines into true treasures. The grapes come from the Quinta das Aranhas, a vineyard near the Tua River, which offers optimal conditions for the production of premium ports. The special production method of the port, in which fermentation is stopped by adding brandy, gives the wine its natural sweetness and unique taste. A visit to the historic cellars of JH Andresen is a journey into the past and provides an insight into the traditional art of port wine production. The Andresen Colheita Port Special Selection 1991/2021 impresses with its golden brown color and unfolds a beguiling bouquet of dried figs and a delicate nutty note, surrounded by ripe fruit. Every nuance reveals a maximum of elegance and power, accompanied by an exceptional length on the tongue. Perfectly balanced, this port shows a fine, delicate acidity and a remarkable complexity that enchants every connoisseur.
