Suché biele portské na porto tonic
K paštéte a mäkkým syrom, dobre vychladené, prípadne s tonikom a ľadom. Polovica zmesi z nerezu, polovica zo suda.
Suché biele portské vzniká zo zmesi vín s priemerným vekom šesť rokov. Jedna časť odleží v nereze, druhá v sudoch s objemom okolo 550 litrov.
Nerez aj sud
Nerez drží citrusovú sviežosť mladého vína, sud ho počas rokov pomaly prevzdušňuje a pridáva tóny zrenia. V pohári sa potom stretávajú obe polohy naraz. Pri portskom znamená suché niečo iné než pri tichom víne: toto má 46 gramov cukru na liter, čo je v rámci portského málo, ale sladkosť z pohára nezmizne, len ju vyvažuje výrazná kyselina.

Vasques de Carvalho
While this winery might be one of the newest additions to the port wine lodges of Vila Nova de Gaia, the Vasques de Carvalho family history has strong roots intertwined with the history of the Douro.
In 1880, by decision of José Vasques de Carvalho given the exceptional quality of the harvest, almost all of the production was not sold that year. This wine has been aged and carefully stored in family warehouses up to the present day.
Vasques de Carvalho winery produces a variety of great port wines like LBV and Vintage Port, but the real treasure are the old Tawny Ports. In the category of Tawnies with an indication of age they are just outstanding.
