VINIFICATION Like all other Churchill’s Ports, the component wines of this Vintage blend have been vinified in traditional granite lagares (treading tanks). After fermentation, the wine goes through an ageing period in seasoned oak casks for an average of 30 years. The wines are then blended to house style before bottling. TASTING NOTES Bright, amber/copper colour. A complex and seductive combination of aromas of cigar box, toffee and cedar wood with hints of fresh, black fruits. Elegant and enveloping on the palate, combining freshness with ageing, showing notes of dried fruits and orange peel along with floral and menthol undertones, ending in a long velvety finish. CELLARING Filtered and ready for immediate drinking so does not require bottle ageing. SERVING Best enjoyed within 2 years of bottling. Serve chilled (12º-14ºC). QUALITY We practice sustainable agricultural methods certified by the SATIVA institute. Our ports are produced only with the fermentation of indigenous yeasts. Our wines do not contain or are produced with genetically modified organisms or substances of origin. Animal products are not used. HISTORY Churchill’s was founded in 1981 by winemaker Johnny Graham, whose family has been making wine in the Douro for six generations. We were the first port shipper to be started-up in over half a century and are now the last independent British port house. Churchill´s ports are unique for their signature dry, fresh style. We produce all our ports from grade A grapes that are hand-picked, foot crushed and naturally fermented for finest quality wines with minimal intervention. PLEASE NOTE: This is a recurring auction.
