Located on a prime position on the left bank of the Douro River opposite Pinhão, Quinta das Carvalhas is one of the most emblematic and spectacular vineyards in the Douro valley. With a rich history dating back to 1759, Carvalhas is one of the jewels of the Douro. In recent years, this Quinta has undergone a transformation to adopt sustainable viticulture practices whilst preserving the historic century-old vines that go towards making the estates best wines.
For 50 years, these Ports made from Old Vines at Quinta das Carvalhas are aged in the finest old oak cascs to ensure its magnificent structure and harmonious and delicate notes. These wines represent the authenticity of a region capable of making wines that can age decades and even centuries. At Quinta das Carvalhas, a classic terroir for the production of Port, allied to Old Vines of unique carisma, are responsible for this 50 year Old Port of great aromatic complexity and nobility.
A beautiful deep amber colour with brownish hints, typical of a very old Tawny Port. The aromas of this 50 Year Old blend reveal refined notes of varnish, nutmeg, cedar and old oak cask, in a complex aromatic profile where a citrus freshness emerges. On the palate it shows a firm structure with a large spectrum of nutty flavours and liquorice, finishing very long and impressively persistent.
