The Harvey Nichols Dry White Port is a first-class aperitif wine with a beautiful amber, honey colour. It shows excellent fruit, as well hints of pear drop, on the palate, all the while maintaining a long, dry finish.
It’s made using the traditional port varieties, mainly Viosinho, Gouveia, Rabigato and Malvasia Fina and the first pressings of the grapes are run off and used in our white wines. When the pH starts to rise, approximately the last 10% of the juice is drawn off into stainless steel vats, to be made into white port, stopping the fermentation by adding brandy. The Harvey Nichols Extra Dry White Port is blended from stocks held at La Rosa and is aged in large ‘tonels’ (or wooden vats) for an average of 2-3 years.
The grapes are sourced from our friends at Quinta de la Rosa and their picturesque vineyards, whose vines rise dramatically out of the river with the imposing Vale do Inferno vineyard and climb majestically up to an altitude of 500m with Lamelas, whose magnificent views overlook the very heart of the region. The estate’s grapes are category A – the very best the Douro has to offer – and deliver remarkable freshness and minerality provided by the Quinta’s unique terroir. This combined with a steadfast desire to ensure that the brandy is well integrated means that all of our Ports are made in drier ‘house style’ without any overpowering sweetness.
