Description
Quinta de la Rosa is a small estate in the heart of the Alto Douro, owned and operated by the Bergqvist family. It remains one of the few Single Quintas where the vineyards start at the bank of the Douro and rise 450 meters to the towering top of the mountain. La Rosa and Tim Berqgvist are special. In many ways, they represent what the Douro is all about: pride, courage, tradition and the determination to produce the finest product in one of nature’s most difficult climactic conditions.
A tall, chilled glass of white Port and tonic will convey you magically to the bucolic Quinta de la Rosa’s sun-drenched, riparian terraces in no time. Rich and rounded, the slight sweetness works well (try adding chopped mint rather than orange or lemon) and is wonderfully refreshing. Equally, it is delicious on its own – but always with a bowl of salted almonds.

Critics reviews
This is aromatic with lemon rind, honeysuckle, beeswax and stones. Sleek and creamy with mellow fruit. Citrus and golden apples. Zest and crushed herbs on the finish.

About this wine
Porto
Port is rich, powerful, and timeless—a sweet, fortified wine that has captivated drinkers for centuries with its intensity, complexity, and majestic balance. Made exclusively in the Douro Valley of northern Portugal, Port is available in two main styles: bottle-aged and cask-aged. Whether enjoyed on its own or with cheese, Port always demands centre stage.
