I used to save bottles like this for special occasions. But in the last few years I’ve come to realize that another day spent above ground is special occasion enough. This 32-year-old port is spectacular, made even more so enjoying it in my grandmother’s crystal.

Sparkling and Fortified Wines for the Holidays
Sparkling and Fortified Wines for the Holidays #bcwine #bcvqa #cava #prosecco #port #tawnyport #organic #okanagan #somm @pascualtoso @cvne @masiwines @evolvecellars @mcwatterswine @winebcdotcom @BurrowingOwlBC
The holiday season will soon be upon us.  When I turned on a local FM radio station today they were already playing Christmas songs.  It’s time to start stocking up on wines to celebrate with friends and family.  Sparkling wines are often associated with the holidays.  For some people, a nice fortified wine, like a port wine is also appreciated over the holidays.  It is very enjoyable to sip…

Happy Anniversary, my love. Sometimes I pinch myself knowing that I get to spend the rest of my life loving you, cherishing you and letting you know just how much you mean to me. Plus, the sex is definitely another bonus. 
Like I always tell you, you truly changed my life for the better and now I can’t imagine how it would be without you by my side. You really make me want to be a better dancer, singer, husband, uncle and overall..better everything. I genuinely cannot begin to describe the joy and happiness you’ve brought into my life since I met you. But maybe throughout our lives together, I can try to explain it. 
You get me in ways nobody else on the planet does -- not even my own parents! You know me better than I know myself, and you always will too so you better be giving yourself a pat on the back for that, mister. Thank you for always being my biggest supporter and always being there for me when I need you the most. You have no idea how much you just being there means to me, and I dunno if I’ll ever be able to find the words to tell you.
I love you so much, Taemin.
Yours eternally,
Nini.
Since I know how much you love this scent, I decided to get you a gift box for it.
It includes: 3 OZ. EAU DE PARFUM SPRAY, A 0.33 OZ. TRAVEL SPRAY, & A 1.6 OZ. BODY LOTION
Tumblr media
Next, Taylor Fladgate Single Harvest 1896 Tawny Port, all the way from Portugal. I was recommended this the last time I was in France so..I had to get it! Don’t kill me for how much it is, okay? I also got a wine gift basket, with all the goodies you could want to make up for it.
The magical quality of this wine is unique, hard to compare even with the few other wines of similar age that have survived to the present day. Its depth and density is astonishing, even taking into account the wine’s concentration over a century and a quarter of aging in wood.
At first, a rich and seductive redolence of black coffee and liquorice takes center stage but a host of other scents and nuances soon emerge, creating an intricate display of complex aromas. Notes of sawn cedarwood blend with hints of dried rose petal, fennel and eucalyptus. Notes of black pepper and vanilla add a warm spicy dimension. On the palate the wine is dense, round and velvety with impressive volume and concentration, the sweetness is balanced by a fresh acidity. Mellow flavors of coffee and butterscotch combine with vibrant notes of orange peel and citrus. The finish is endless, the dense mellow flavors remaining on the palate long after the wine has been tasted.
About the bottle: Each decanter designed and produced exclusively for Taylor Fladgate 1896 Single Harvest Port was individually hand blown and finished by skilled craftmen, making it unique.

Krohn 2010 Colheita Port
Krohn 2010 Colheita Port is a single vintage Tawny Port. A Colheita Port must be made from grapes harvested from a single vintage and aged for at least 7 years in barrel prior to release.
Krohn or, Wiese and Krohn to give its full name, was founded in 1865 by two young Norwegians, Theodor Wiese & Dankert Krohn. Edmundo Falcão Carneiro acquired the company in the 1930s and Wiese and Krohn was run by the second and third generations of the Falcão Carneiro family until 2013. Krohn Port was acquired by the Fladgate Partnership (owners of Taylor, Croft and Fonseca) in 2013. Krohn’s stocks of Port reach over 5 million litres and are stored in six cellars in Vila Nova de Gaia and one cellar in the Douro Region. They have exceptional stocks of aged tawny Port and colheita Port dating back to 1863.
Grapes for the Krohn 2010 Colheita Port were sourced from old vine vineyards at Krohn’s famous Quinta do Retiro Novo estate in Sarzedinho in the Rio Torto Valley where all their vineyards are rated as “A grade”. Some grapes are also sourced from neighbouring growers in the Rio Torte. These are all old vine vineyards planted on schistous soils. The grapes are trodden by foot at the quinta in large granite “lagares” where the wine also undergoes fermentation. Fermentation is stopped with the addition of grape spirit when the desired level of sweetness is achieved. This fine tawny Port is aged in 547 litre oak vats (also traditionally known as a Port “pipe”) at the Wiese & Krohn cellars in Vila Nova de Gaia, on the Atlantic coast. Wines are bottled without fining and to order, maximising the time spent in barrel. It is a typical Port wine blend of Touriga Nacional, Touriga Francesa and Tinta Roriz
This may throw a light sediment but, in general, Tawny Ports do not need decanting like a vintage Port.
Suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

Port Wine Market 2022 Size, Share, Technological Innovations & Growth Forecast To 2032
The global port wine market is set to witness a significant CAGR of 8.1% and is anticipated to reach a valuation of around USD 2,011.9 Million by 2032.
The major factors influencing the expansion of the port wine market are consumer alcohol trends. Consumers are trying various types of alcohol, particularly craft beer, whiskey, and premium wines.
Port wine is less acidic, which acts as an important factor for the growth of the port wine market, as consumers who favor less acidic liquors have shown a preference for port wine.
Increasing awareness about the unidentified health benefits of port wine, such as the presence of the antioxidant resveratrol, through social media platforms and communication technology, is also expected to propel the port wine market’s growth.
Download Sample Copy@ https://www.futuremarketinsights.com/reports/sample/rep-gb-15123
Nowadays, consumers are more concerned about the process of production and origin of specific alcohol; thus, instructional marketing is a strategy to help the port wine market share growth. The introduction of new flavors, such as cinnamon, raspberry, chocolate, caramel, and others, result in enormous growth opportunities for the port wine market.
As the world’s largest wine consumer, the United States continues to be a focus for many global port wine makers. Due mostly to the rise of upper-middle-class urban customers, the Indian port wine market has emerged as the most rapidly growing alcoholic beverage category in the past ten years.
Key Takeaways from Market Study
The market is segmented based on nature, wherein the red port wine is anticipated to account for a significant global port wine market share in 2022.
White wine is expected to witness a lucrative growth rate of 9.2% during the forecast period.
The European port wine market is anticipated to dominate the global market, with a share of around 34.2% in 2022.
South Asia is expected to witness a lucrative growth rate in the port wine market during the forecast period.
On the basis of sales channels, the liquor store is expected to hold a dominating port wine market share in 2022, but the online retail store is expected to witness a lucrative growth rate over the forecast period.
Based on product type, tawny port wine is dominating the global port wine market in 2022.
“The port wine manufacturers are primarily focusing on investing in promotional and advertising activities to increase the sales in specific regions, such as South Asia and East Asia,” says a Future Market Insights analyst.
Competitive Landscape
In order to increase revenue and generate sales from regions such as the Middle East and Africa, the companies are focusing on reaching consumers in several untapped markets. There are several regions where premium port wines from other countries are exported. This raises the price of premium products, reducing sales in these regions.
Symington Family, La Martiniquaise, Sogrape, Fladgate Partnership, Sogevinus, A ACálem, C N Kopke, Cockburn Smiths &CompanhiaLda, Delaforce Sons & Companhia, Martinez Gassiot, Vinhos SA, Ramos Pinto, Warren & Companhia, SA, Wiese & Krohn, Sucrs, Lda, and Others are the major participants in the port wine market.
Recent Developments:
In 2020, Premium Port Wines, the US importer for leading Port producer Symington Family Estates, is pleased to announce the launch of Fine and Vintage Wines, an online retail store offering the finest Ports, Madeiras, and Douro table wines direct from the producers’ cellars in Portugal.
In 2021, Taylor’s launched a digital campaign to coincide with the ‘Port season’ of fortified wine-drinking occasions, which includes Halloween, Bonfire Night, Christmas, and New Year’s Eve.

Monday, 15th July 2019 – Barão Fladgate, Vila Nova de Gaia
Knowing we’d be flying home late we’d planned to have a good lunch somewhere, possibly with a spot more port thrown in for good measure. When I booked a table at Barão Fladgate, I don’t think I’d anticipated just how good a lunch it was likely to turn into. Of course the night before at the Yeatman (which is owned by the same people) should probably have given me some idea, but we hadn’t been there when I made the reservation. We got a taxi over from the Intercontinental to save arriving in a soggy state of sweatiness, much as we had the evening before.
Tumblr media
The path from the gate is shaded and you can turn off to the port lodge for a tour, the shop to buy some port and associated bits and pieces, and the restaurant for a relaxing and delicious lunch. There’s a terrace but they clearly didn’t trust the weather because we were all inside this Monday lunchtime. There was a slightly punchy seagull or two, seemingly newly fledged, hanging about optimistically outside, but inside all was calm and peaceful.
Tumblr media
We did a bit of thinking and decided that we’d go for the set lunch menu, because it sounded good. It was three courses and a glass of wine for €30 so it seemed like quite the bargain. We also accepted the glass of port offered as an aperitif when we settled down. There was a glass of Taylor’s Chip-Dry White which slipped down a treat.
Tumblr media
We decided we’d choose the included wines to go with the starters, which were described as tomato gazpacho with basil foam and rustic tomato bread toast and traditional Portuguese smoked sausage of meat and bread in filo pastry with sautéed greens and a Port wine reduction. We chose one of each and the sommelier popped across with his recommendations by the glass. The gazpacho was superb, the foam light and full of basil flavours, at its freshest, and the tomato bread toast was more a crispy crouton than a piece of not very interesting toast. It went nicely with a glass of Oboé Douro Branco 2017, a pale yellow wine, citrussy and floral and ideal with tomatoes.
Tumblr media
The sausage, which I assume was a take on the “jewish” sausage we tried on the food tour as it was described as being smoked and containing meat and bread, was so light in comparison the one we’d eaten on Friday, wrapped in filo pastry. It was perched on a bed of spinach, and the port wine reduction was deep and rich and a good reason to eat the spinach to make sure you got it all. That was paired with a Douro Dona Berta Reserva Tinto 2014, made from Tinta Roriz, Touriga Nacional, Tinta Barroca, Tinto Cão and Touriga Franca. It gives you red currant, cherry and berry fruits and is smooth and lovely.
Tumblr media
We’d also chosen one each of the mains and so of course we needed another look at the wine list for something else by the glass but ended up with a second round of he same! There was codfish with corn bread, olive and Parmesan crust, and a pea and lemon cream with fried corn cubes for one of us (well, we did swap halfway through as we so often do). I particularly enjoyed the crunchy corn cubes, but the fish was all you could hope for too.
Tumblr media
The duck thigh which had been slow-cooked at a low temperature, was served with smoked sausage, pearl barley, vegetables and a Taylor’s Late Bottled Vintage Port wine sauce. It might not be the ideal dish for a hot, sunny day but it was deliciously sticky and really rather fabulous. In effect it was a lighter take on a cassoulet, I would say, though I don’t know that I’d necessarily want to suggest that to a Portuguese chef.
Tumblr media
We were going to bypass the cheese (which was not included in the lunch offer) but then one of the waiters wheeled the trolley over and that was the end of any resistance from us! Unlike at the Blini on Saturday the cheese here was perfectly kept, and the waiting staff knew what it all was. And it was exceedingly good cheese, with excellent biscuits, and almonds, walnuts and tiny dried figs, to say nothing of the jams, which is a lovely thing if you ask me. With the cheese we shared a glass of Taylor’s Vargella Vintage Port 2015, a traditional but nonetheless good, as well as one of Fonseca Porto Terra Prima Organic Port which was interesting for several reasons, including the fact that it’s labelled as organic. Waitrose describe it as “a smooth, fruity and warming reserve port made from organically grown grapes in the Douro Valley. It’s sturdy and characterful in a rich ruby reserve style, with flavours of blueberry, cherry and plum”. And that’s why it was so good with the cheese.
Tumblr media
The final stage was a tropical fruit semi-freddo with black cherry purée and mango ice cream, the tropical fruit certainly including passion fruit and probably mango as well. It was smooth, with a tang to it from the passion fruit. Oddly enough, the sommelier somehow managed to persuade us that a glass of Taylor’s 30 Year Old Tawny Port was what we really, really needed now. He wasn’t wrong… Described by its maker as “deep, old gold colour with hints of dried fruit and honey offsetting the rich nutty aromas. Lush, silky richness with an elegant, slightly austere quality which is quite distinctive. Subtle dried fruit flavours underly, exotic layers of caramel and nuts culminating in an endless finish.” Works for me, is all I can say.
Tumblr media
Afterwards, we pottered across to the Taylor’s shop, and failed to buy the rose port they’d suggested, but we did pick up two bottles of the Chip-Dry which we duly wrangled back to the hotel and into our suitcases!
