Cockburns Tails White Heights Port 75cl

Cockburns Tails White Heights Port

This elegant white port hails from the renowned Douro Valley in Portugal, specifically from the high-altitude vineyards of the Favaios sub-region. Known for its cooler climate and elevated positioning, this area produces grapes with enhanced acidity and freshness, making it ideal for creating a vibrant and well-balanced white port. Once thought too hot for quality white port production, the region now shines with this refined expression.

Crafted from the top 10% of the harvest, this white port is both aromatic and lively, with a slightly drier finish than most traditional white ports. Its bright character and crisp profile make it a standout, offering an ideal balance of fruitiness and freshness. Perfect for sipping or mixing into creative cocktails, it offers a refreshing twist on a classic style of fortified wine.

• Tropical notes of papaya, pineapple, and passionfruit give it a lively and fruity profile
• Subtle honeysuckle aromas add a delicate floral touch to the nose
• Crisp, refreshing hints of yellow plum and pear lend the wine balance and structure
• A light touch of vanilla enhances the smooth, soft finish
• Cockburns Tails White Heights Port offers a unique and vibrant take on the white port style

Serve this chilled for maximum freshness and to enhance its fruit-forward, floral notes. Its dry and crisp style makes it ideal as an aperitif or mixed into cocktails like a Port & Tonic, combined with tonic water and a twist of citrus or fresh mint. For food pairings, this white port complements salty cheeses, light seafood dishes, and spiced Asian cuisine.
