Croft Vintage Port wine tasting
A large Croft Port wine tasting took place in November 2014 in the Bayer Casino Hotel of Leverkusen, Germany. The participants tasted more than 20 different Vintage Ports. The oldest one was 1917, followed by 1927, 1935, 1945 and many years of the second half of the 20th century and also some recent Vintage Port for example 2011. Guest of honour was the winemaker of Croft, which belongs to the Fladgate Partnership since 2001. Mr. Guimaraens has been kind enough to summarize for this video the tasting, the history of Croft and their special property Quinta da Roeda in the Douro valley.

▬More information▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Die berühmten Portweinkeller befinden sich genau genommen gar nicht in Porto, sondern in der direkt am Südufer des Douro gegenüberliegenden Stadt Vila Nova de Gaia, die man kurz nur Gaia nennt.
Nach dort ist es nur ein Katzensprung entweder zu Fuß oder mit dem Taxi über die weltbekannte Dom Luis Brücke. Direkt am
Kai befinden sich zahlreiche
Portweinkeller mit jahrhundertealter Tradition. Kein Besuch von Porto ist komplett ohne nicht wenigstens einen Keller, die man auch Lodges nennt besucht zu haben um die Faszination des Portweins zu erleben.

CULTIVATION, HARVEST OF PORT WINE in PORTUGAL 1950s TRAVELOGUE 86224
Made in 1955 and directed by the great John R.F. Stewart, Song of the Grape shows the making of Port wine in where else -- Portugal.
It includes precious images of manual labor, with peasants digging earth and planting vines, and cultivating the landscape in the Duoro Valley. The village celebration at the end of the harvest is also seen, with the priests blessing oxen pulling huge barrels of wine. The wine travels by ship to Oporto where it is shipped worldwide.
Port wine (also known as Vinho do Porto, Porto, and usually simply port) is a Portuguese fortified wine produced exclusively in the Douro Valley in the northern provinces of Portugal. It is typically a sweet, red wine, often served as a dessert wine, though it also comes in dry, semi-dry, and white varieties. Fortified wines in the style of port are also produced outside Portugal, most notably in Australia, France, South Africa, Canada, India, Argentina, and the United States. Under European Union Protected Designation of Origin guidelines, only the product from Portugal may be labelled as port or Porto. In the United States, wines labelled port may come from anywhere in the world, while the names Oporto, Porto, and Vinho do Porto have been recognized as foreign, non-generic names for Port wines originating in Portugal.
Port is produced from grapes grown and processed in the demarcated Douro region. The wine produced is then fortified by the addition of a neutral grape spirit known as aguardente in order to stop the fermentation, leaving residual sugar in the wine, and to boost the alcohol content. The fortification spirit is sometimes referred to as brandy but it bears little resemblance to commercial brandies. The wine is then stored and aged, often in barrels stored in a Lodge (meaning cellar) as is the case in Vila Nova de Gaia, before being bottled. The wine received its name, port, in the later half of the 17th century from the seaport city of Porto at the mouth of the Douro River, where much of the product was brought to market or for export to other countries in Europe. The Douro valley where port wine is produced was defined and established as a protected region, or appellation in 1756, making it the third oldest, after Chianti (1716) and Tokaj (1730).
The reaches of the valley of the Douro River in northern Portugal have a microclimate that is optimal for cultivation of olives, almonds, and especially grapes important for making port wine. The region around Pinhão and São João da Pesqueira is considered to be the centre of port production, and is known for its picturesque quintas—farms clinging on to almost vertical slopes dropping down to the river.
