The Douro Valley in Portugal is home to the Port wine vineyard Quinta do Vesuvio. Famous for its vintage and single quinta (estate grown) Ports, the estate has earned a solid reputation over the years. The wines have complex scents of dark fruit, such as black cherry, blackberry, and plum, as well as chocolate, coffee, and spice. With a perfect harmony between acidity and tannins, these wines are silky and pleasant on the tongue. The aftertaste is very pleasant, with a hint of sweetness and a little spice. The Ports produced at Quinta do Vesuvio are universally regarded as some of the best in the Douro Valley.
