Producer
The Soneto Ports are made by José Pinheiro who was previously the winemaker at Sandeman, the well-known Port house. A classic Reserve Ruby Port with an opaque ruby/black hue. Fragrant aromas of rich ripe blackberry and earthy cassis transition to a concentrated balanced palate with flavours of plum pudding, fig and blackcurrant. Enjoy immediately alongside dark chocolate or allow to continue to evolve in cellar.
Soneto Porto, DOC Porto, Reserva Tawny Gesprove
A wonderful pairing to elevate your next charcuterie board. Match with roasted almonds, figs, mango/ginger Stilton and prosciutto. A complex and elegant fortified wine with a ruby/garnet hue and a fragrant bouquet of date, dried cranberry and gingerbread. Brown sugar, gingerbread and sultana raisin are layered on the palate and trail into a memorable finish.
Soneto Porto, DOC Porto, Late Bottled Vintage Gesprove
2018 was the fourth of a series of very good vintages for Port and the Soneto Porto LBV is a great example. Ruby red in colour with aromas of black cherry jubilee, spice and mint. The first sip reveals a concentrated palate of juicy blackberry and burnt sugar lifted by a hint of mint. Notes of baking spice trail on the finish. LBV style Ports are bottled ready to drink and but also will last for many years in the cellar.
