A Taste of Portugal

Thu, Oct 17, 24

Portugal may be a small country, but when it comes to wine, it packs a mighty punch! At Crown Liquors, we’re celebrating the rich winemaking traditions of Portugal with a special selection of wines and ports that showcase the best of this vibrant region. Whether you're new to Portuguese wines or a seasoned fan, we’ve got the perfect lineup to take your taste buds on an unforgettable adventure.

Start your journey with Muros Antigos Vinho Verde, a lively white wine from the Vinho Verde region. Crisp and refreshing, this wine bursts with citrus notes and a subtle effervescence, making it the perfect choice for light seafood dishes or as a refreshing sip on a warm day.

For those who love a bold red, look no further than Herdade Trinca Bolotas. This full-bodied red from the Alentejo region is packed with flavors of ripe dark fruits, oak, and earthy spices. It’s rich, smooth, and perfect for pairing with hearty meals like grilled meats or robust cheeses.

No Portuguese wine experience would be complete without tasting some of the country’s famous ports. Fonseca Bin 27 Ruby Port is a fan favorite, offering intense blackberry and plum flavors with a luxurious, velvety finish. It’s a versatile port that pairs wonderfully with desserts, dark chocolate, or even a sharp cheese plate.

Finally, indulge in the elegance of Warres Otima 10-Year Tawny Port. Aged to perfection, this tawny port delivers layers of caramel, dried fruits, and toasted nuts with a balanced, smooth finish. Whether you’re enjoying it as a dessert on its own or pairing it with a slice of almond cake, this port is sure to impress.

At Crown Liquors, we’re bringing the flavors of Portugal straight to your glass. Stop by to grab one (or all!) of these incredible wines and ports, and elevate your next gathering or cozy night in with a taste of the old world. Cheers to discovering something new!
