Warre's
Warre is the oldest continually owned British port company. They trace their origins back to 1670 when William Burgoyne and John Jackson opened a trading office in northern Portugal. The first Warre joined the firm in 1729. They are now excelling under the Symington’s, a 13th generation port family who brought huge expertise and investment. They acquired the Quinta da Cavadinha estate, whose top quality vines have further boosted quality.

(1x75cl) 1970Wine Advocate (87)
This house makes rather restrained yet rich, flavorful vintage port and a very good tawny called Nimrod. Their vintage ports seem slow to develop, and while they never quite have the voluptuous richness of a Dow, Graham, or Fonseca, they have a unique mineral-scented character that gives them their own complexity and style. The 1970 remains rather unyielding but still impressive.Inc. VAT£267.11 -

(12x75cl) 2000Jancis Robinson (18.5)
Deep blackish purple. Lovely lift and savour. Slight hint of sawdust on extremely luscious fruit then some fine tannins. Pretty interesting, if non-classic wine. A real flatterer. Long but with great interest. Dry finish.Inc. VAT£639.96 -
Inc. VAT£309.07 -
Vinous (92)
Deep ruby. Vibrant, expressive aromas and flavors of kirsch, dark chocolate and flowers. Very dense, fat and sweet, with excellent inner-mouth energy leavening the impression of lushness. Finishes long and sweetly tannic, with a bit of brandy to be absorbed. This has the density and tannic clout for a graceful evolution in bottle.Inc. VAT£310.27 -
Wine Advocate (93-95)
The Warre’s Vintage was picked beginning on September 18 at Quinta da Cavindha, with fruit also sourced from Quinta do Retiro and Quinta da Telhada. It is a blend of 37% Touriga Nacional, 23% Tinta Franca and 40% mixture of old vines. There is a lovely sea spray note on the 2011 Warre’s that emerges after ten minutes in the glass. It is nicely defined with a tangible mineral component. The palate is very well-balanced with fine tannins, very well-judged acidity and a languorous feel, as if everything is in place and it does not want to show off. This is a lovely, refined 2011 – one of the most elegant 2011s. This is a classic Warre’s. 3,000 cases declared. Tasted May 2013.Inc. VAT£366.67 -
