What you can expect

Visit the Port Wine Cellars of Real Companhia Velha, a two-hundred-year-old company located in Vila Nova de Gaia. Explore the cellars and see the wine resting and ageing in the noble wooden casks, vats, and barrels.

Starting with…

A Lágrima Port wine aged for 3 to 4 years with notes of dried flowers, honey, and almond. Aged in wooden vats, it has a balanced acidity and a delicate flavour combined with the essence of guava and passion fruit in a milk chocolate truffle.
High intensity, freshness, and an explosion of exotic flavours.

Following…

A full-bodied Late Bottled Vintage, with intense notes of black fruit and spices. Aged between 4 and 6 years in wooden vats, it presents a deep flavour and an elegant structure that harmonises with Castro Marim Fleur de Sel, intensifying the flavour of the dark chocolate ganache that gives it a unique personality.

Enjoying…

A 10-year-old Quinta das Carvalhas Port, elegant, with notes of dried fruit, honey and caramel after an average of 10 years of ageing in wooden casks, presents a striking complexity and a smooth finish, perfect to accompany a dark chocolate and Earl Grey tea ganache, in a surprising and very elegant truffle.

Finishing with…
A sophisticated 20-year-old Quinta das Carvalhas, with intense aromas of dried fruit, spices and aged wood. Aged for an average of 20 years in wooden casks, it reveals a refined balance and an incomparable smoothness, ideal for -Hazelnut- A creamy truffle with milk chocolate ganache and pure hazelnut paste, wrapped in a thin layer of dark chocolate.
