As we know, Port Wine is an emotional state and full of magic. The origin of the "São Leonardo" brand began with Quintas daCosta and Poisa, where two families lived there, one on each farm, whose caretakers were brothers.
m
As there were no long-distance media at the time, the roads were very rudimentary. Thus, it was precisely in the middle of the way that they met, in the magnificent viewpoint of São Leonardo da Galafura, that inspired great poets, such as Miguel Torga, and continues today to enchant its visitors who visit the amazing viewpoint of São Leonardo da Galafura, where the poet was very inspired by his literary work.
m
That is why the Port Wines "São Leonardo" represent, in a certain way, a meeting of brothers.

Outer quote mark The NV 10 Year Old White Port São Leonardo is a field blend of grapes like Viosinho, Codega de Larinho, Cerceal and Malvasia. It was bottled in 2019 with a bar-top cork and 128 grams of residual sugar. This is a bit pricey for a 10 Year, but it is also quite lush and rich for a 10. Indeed, it tastes more like a Tawny in flavors and concentration. The color is like a Tawny too. The power is not as impressive, and it is a bit flabby at times, but it has some bite on the finish. This is an unusual white—it won't remind you of a white—but it is an excellent one. To be sure, some will prefer a white that actually seems like a white.
nice choice, and good price. tks mip
