Ferreira Vintage Port 2018 75cl

Ferreira Vintage Port 2018

A single-vintage expression from a producer with more than 270 years of Port-making heritage. Its near-opaque colour and complex aromas reveal concentrated black fruit, cedar, tobacco and balsamic spice. Powerful tannins and well-integrated acidity give this structured Port the depth and balance to develop over many years in the cellar.

Tasting Profile:

• Appearance: Almost opaque, with intense depth of colour.
• Nose: Black fruits, floral and balsamic notes, resin, cedar, tobacco box, pepper and a subtle stony touch.
• Palate: Excellent body, firm tannins and balanced acidity, with concentrated fruit and layered spice.
• Finish: Long and vibrant, with a harmonious persistence of fruit and spice.

Food Pairing Suggestions

Here are a few serving suggestions and pairing ideas to help you get the most from this wine, whether you’re enjoying it with food or simply savouring it on its own.

Stilton with walnut biscuits and fig chutney is an exceptional pairing because the sweetness of the Port softens the cheese's salty intensity. The wine's concentration stands up effortlessly to the richness, while the black fruit and spice add further complexity. Decant several hours before serving for the best experience.

Dark chocolate torte with blackberry compote works beautifully because the wine's powerful fruit profile mirrors the dessert without being overwhelmed. The tannic structure and freshness keep the pairing balanced and elegant. Serve slightly below room temperature after a celebratory meal.

Ferreira

Founded in 1751, Ferreira is one of Portugal’s most historic and respected Port houses and is uniquely known for its strong Portuguese ownership and identity. Closely associated with Dona Antonia Adelaide Ferreira, a key figure in the development of the Douro wine region during the 19th century, the house played a major role in modernising Port production. Ferreira remains a symbol of tradition, quality, and national heritage within Portuguese wine culture.
