N.V. Romariz, White Port 6/750ml
A blend of wines from the Arinto, Boal, Codega, Esagna CAO, Folgasao, Gouveio, Viosinho, and Rabigato grapes grown in the Douro. This is aged in oak for three years. Aromas of fruit cocktail, round and full, orange-nutty undertone, strong flavored and sweet. Refreshing summertime drink on ice.

"White Port has an awful reputation with most wine fanciers, at least in the U.S., based on some very cheap and bad domestic wines made under this title in times past. But it has always been a legitimate option in Oporto, and as long as you stick with the genuine article, it's worth getting to know. Sometimes sweet (as in this case), sometimes dry, it is a strong, fortified wine like the more familiar red Ports, somewhat akin to a Fino Sherry but without the intentional oxidation that Sherry undergoes. This one is a clear gold color, with a grapey, faintly nutty aroma that reminds me of almonds and hazelnuts. Distinctly sweet but not "sticky," I would guess that its sugar content is much lower than Ruby Port. With mixed nuts and a firm acidic "grip" in the finish, you could almost close your eyes and imagine you're drinking a red Port. U.S. importer: Kysela Pere et Fils Ltd., Winchester, Va".

2007 Romariz, Vintage Port 6/750ml
The 2007 vintage is a classic ranking along side: 1970, 1994, and 1997 in quality.
Managing director Adrian Bridge notes: 
2007 is a classic port year. The weather before harvest was sunny and warm resulting in wines with firm tannins and great structure. This vintage should last 15-20 years. The wine is deep purple in color, black fruit and plum aromas. Hints of liquorice and dark chocolate are followed by a powerful finish with plenty of grip. Grip is essential for aging.
(Production is limited)

"The 2007 Romariz Vintage Port is a glass-coating opaque purple color. It delivers an expressive perfume of spice box, espresso, violets, blackberry, and fruitcake. On the palate it has good volume, savory flavors, plenty of structure, and a decade of aging potential. This lengthy, effort will offer a drinking window extending from 2017 to 2027."

2003 Romariz, Vintage Port 6/750ml
Flowering in the Duoro occurred in the last 10 days of May. The weather conditions provided for a perfect flowering season. The 2003 vintage yielded wines of great color and supple tannins, with a vintage stamp being evident in most wines. Production: 8,000 cases. 
"Another bright and fruity young Vintage Port with plum, grape and blackberry aromas with just a hint of stems. Serious nose here. Full-bodied, with soft, round tannins and a long, caressing finish. A beauty." - J.S., Wine Spectator, 89-91 pts

"Bright dark ruby. Deep, perfumed aromas of cassis, licorice, violet and minerals. Lush and high-toned in the mouth but with very good vinosity and spine. Lovely fruit-driven flavors of black cherry, blackberry and dark chocolate. Little sign of the roasted side of 2003. Not hugely concentrated but suave, supple, minerally and sweet. Finishes with ripe tannins and very good spicy persistence. A very good showing. Accessible already but balanced for medium-term aging."
