Deep rich purple color, very aromatic, with a delicious personality. Elegant and fresh, very pure red fruit flavors. Soft and round tannins, with a delicate but powerful length.
Christian Seely, Managing Director: "with the 2008 Vintage, of which we produce less than 600 cases, I feel that we are moving into new territory, with a wine that I consider to be the loveliest Port wine yet produced at the property. The 2008 has a wonderful spicy aromatic, character that seems to be characteristic of Romaneira, together with great length and depth on the palate, and great finesse on the finish.
