Simplesmente Vinho offered this year for the first time three special tastings. One of them was dedicated to Quinta do Infantado and the release of a limited edition 50 year old tawny. The festival’s own Jo\u00e3o Roseira and his son \u00c1lvaro, now responsible winemaker, guided us through around ten wines and samples, before they presented the new tawny.<\/p>\n\n\n

The release marks 50 years since the Portuguese Revolution, which ended the dictatorship and ushered in democracy. This special edition not only commemorates that historic moment but also pays tribute to Jo\u00e3o\u2019s father, Lu\u00eds Roseira, who was instrumental in Quinta do Infantado\u2019s pioneering shift to estate-bottling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Roseira family has owned and managed Quinta do Infantado for over a century. In 1979, Lu\u00eds Roseira, born on February 23, 1924, together with his brother Ant\u00f3nio, led the estate\u2019s groundbreaking decision to bottle its own wines\u2014breaking with the tradition of selling bulk Port to the large houses in Vila Nova de Gaia. This made Quinta do Infantado the first independent producer to bottle its own Ports in the Douro region.<\/p>\n\n\n

50 Year Old Tawny Lu\u00eds Roseira<\/strong> (Quinta do Infantado)<\/em>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deep mahogany with greenish hue towards the rim.
Intense and complex bouquet with layers of dried fruits (figs, dates, and raisins), with caramelized nuts, toffee and nutmeg, along with hints of orange peel and coffee. Concentrated on the palate, with a rich texture balanced by vibrant acidity, with flavours that mirror the aromas, alongside a subtle minerality. The finish is extremely long, with a dry, nutty aftertaste and delicate bitter notes like dark chocolate and espresso.
This 50-year-old Tawny Port from Quinta do Infantado is a masterpiece. It reminds me of an exceptional old PX sherry, but it’s less sweet. It has multiple possibilities for pairing with food. But it is also a wine for meditation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
