Comentário: Vinho do Porto em alta, lavoura duriense em baixa

Gerdinho — Sun, 02 Feb 2014 15:22:00 +0100

Em 2013, o sector do vinho do Porto acentuou o seu comportamento autofágico e que é o retrato do próprio país, mais desigual do que nunca, com uns quantos cada vez mais ricos e a maioria cada vez mais pobre. Graças ao enorme sucesso do Porto Vintage 2011, as grandes companhias obtiveram lucros fabulosos, mas, mesmo assim, de uma forma geral, reduziram os montantes a pagar aos agricultores por cada pipa de vinho do Porto comprada.

2011 Outstanding for Vintage Port | Edmonton Journal

Gerdinho — Thu, 16 Jan 2014 02:02:03 +0100

Do people still collect Vintage Port? Vintage Port has traditionally been found in the cellars of wine collectors alongside the bottles and cases of Bordeaux, Burgundy, Barolo, Tuscans and Napa Cabernet. Long-time collectors are only now finishing their last bottles of 1963 and starting to pull the corks on their 1977 Vintage Ports.

Which port to drink this Christmas - Telegraph

Gerdinho — Thu, 19 Dec 2013 02:45:05 +0100

Thanks to the remarkable triumph of the declaration of the 2011 vintage in spring – buyers were clamouring to swipe allocations of the very best names – high-end port is back on the agenda. An unexpected consequence of its return to glory is the rise of a style that’s a personal favourite of mine but which has previously sat on the port sidelines: colheita.

Portugal's Best Wine-Tasting Destination - Outdoor - MensJournal.com

Gerdinho — Tue, 10 Dec 2013 02:22:44 +0100

The Douro Valley may produce the world's most famous fortified wines, but this green, terraced canyon in northern Portugal has more going for it than sugary vino. Recent decades have seen a significant uptick in quality table wine varietals as the Douro moves from its port-dominated past toward a future that locals believe may see the region becoming an Iberian Napa and destination for oenotourists from all over the world.

2011 Port Wine - The Best Vintage in the Last 20 Years

Gerdinho — Sat, 26 Oct 2013 20:23:51 +0200

Last week, I blind tasted 60 Ports from the 2011 vintage and was struck by the consistent high quality in the glass. There is no question that this vintage—which has been declared by all major Port producers as well as by many of the single quinta (estate) producers—is a stellar one.

The Radical Reinvention of Great Portuguese Wine | Food & Wine

Gerdinho — Sun, 06 Oct 2013 00:29:45 +0200

The first wine that Dirk Niepoort ever made, back in 1990, was an old-vine blend of local Portuguese varieties, from a vineyard called Quinta do Carril in Portugal's Douro Valley. He called it Robustus. The name was apt: The wine was, as he recalls, "a monster." It was massive and powerfully tannic, almost overbearing in its intensity—but still, he felt, quite good. At the time, almost no one else in the Douro was making table wines. Port ruled the region, as it had since the 1700s. The Niepoort family business, which Dirk's father, Rolf, directed, was port.

Jürgens Weinlese: „Gewinner ist der Weintrinker“ - Lifestyle - Panorama - Handelsblatt

„Viele Anbieter werden aus der selbst geschaffenen Preisspirale nicht rauskommen“, prophezeit Heimrich von Superiore.de. Rabatte von 50 Prozent oder gar 60 Prozent würden dazu führen, dass Kunden nur auf diese hohen Nachlässe warten und weniger vom normalen Angebot kaufen. Er selbst räumt diese hohen Rabatte nicht ein, bietet dafür auf seiner Website zu jedem Wein umfangreiche Beschreibungen und Bewertungen von Weinführern oder anderen Experten. „Wir investieren enorm viel Zeit in unsere Website“, sagt Heimrich.
