Quinta do Portal Moscatel do Douro 1996
Platinum Decanter World Wine Awards - With a beautiful pale amber colour, it has aromas of pear and green apples in perfect balance with some caramel and honey hints. Some almond notes enrich the aroma due to the ageing in wood. The balance between the sugar and the acidity is excellent, leading us to fresh and citric sensations on one side and to the complexity of wines that have aged in barrel on the other. The final is persistent, fresh and complex.
