Adriano Ramos Pinto founded the house in 1880 and the excellent quality of the wines soon gained recognition on the export market. Adriano’s business foresight made him something of a pioneer in the Port market whereby he supported the promotion of his wines with a quality advertising campaign based on posters designed by some of the most famous artists of his time.
Porto White Reserva is made from the Douro Demarcated Region’s finest 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.
VINIFICATION TECHNIQUES
The grapes are hand-picked and the vinification technique is traditional, the skins being slightly macerated. Ageing, in oak barrels, takes place in our cellars in Vila Nova de Gaia.
TASTING NOTES
The colour is amber yellow. 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-balance and with a long-lasting finish.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS AND AGEING
As an aperitif or with a foie gras starter. With dessert of nuts, egg-based sweets and pastries, ice cream or strong cheese. Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place away from direct light.
