Portugal is famous for its amazing port wines, and rightly so. However, Portugal is also a rising star when it comes to table wines.
The top Portuguese table wines are typically fantastic values when compared to their peers from other countries. Every year, new high-end reds from grapes like Tempranillo and Touriga Nacional are appearing, to go along with whites like the light Vinho Verdes that Portugal made famous.

WE9090 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 10/1/2018 This is certainly an intensely structured wine, but its name seems rather excessive for what are balanced fruit and juicy tannins. It has a smooth, minty character, bold berry fruits and a ripe full texture. The tannins and acidity will allow the wine to age further well into 2019, although it can be drunk now.Premier SelectPremier Select wines are handpicked by our staff from amongst thousands of wines for their exceptional quality.

WE8787 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 12/31/2019 This brand, popular in Portugal, is very drinkable when young. Its soft texture and easy, juicy black fruits are integrated and full of vibrant acidity. The wine is ready to drink.
WS8787 pts. - Wine & Spirits - August 31, 2014 Clean and bright, this juicy white follows a simple line of flavor. The acidity is lively — mouthwatering coastal refreshment for anything from the raw bar, particularly clams on the half shell.SP8686 pts. - Wine Spectator - Sep 30, 2010 A crisp white, with fresh-cut apple flavors that are supported by juicy citrus notes. Shows hints of peach on the finish. Drink now.
WE8989 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 11/1/2019 This is a structured wine, packed with red fruits and a grip of tannins. Its dry core gives a balance between fruit and a firm texture. While the wine is ready to drink, it could certainly age through 2020.

SP9797 pts. - Wine Spectator - Feb 28, 2014 Offers intense aromas and flavors of violet, cherry and dark plum, showing an almost exotic velvety nature, with loads of cream and spice accents. Delivers notes of chocolate and vanilla extract on the explosive finish. Very alluring. Best from 2030 through 2060. 800 cases imported.RP92+92–94 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 27th Jun 2013 The Churchill’s Vintage Port has a comparatively light, aniseed-tinged bouquet with orange blossom that wafts seductively from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with supple ripe tannins and very well-judged acidity that lends this young Churchill’s great precision. This is a very harmonious Vintage Port with a lovely touch of salted licorice towards the finish. Beautiful. 3,000 cases declared. Tasted May 2013.
Old Tawny Porto 20 Years NV / 750 ml. | Item#21749
WE9090 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 12/1/2016 Delaforce is a long-established brand that first appeared in the US in the 1930s though it came on the European market in 1878. The wine is sweet with that fascinating old wood character of an aged tawny. Toffee, spice and dried fruits give it a wide range of flavors. The wine, ripe and balanced, is ready to drinkSP8888 pts. - Wine Spectator - Sep 30, 2003 Intense aromas of burnt coffee, cherry and caramel follow through to a full-bodied palate, with a sweet treacle tart aftertaste. This should be delicious with chocolate. A bit too dusty, but I like it. Drink now.
WE9393 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 5/1/2019 This is a wonderful wood-aged, mature Port full of the classic old gold flavors and intense acidity over a dry texture that is a signature of this producer. The wine is impressive, balanced and ready to drink.SP9292 pts. - Wine Spectator - Apr 30, 2019 A juicy, up-front style, with hazelnut, raisin, cinnamon and dried cherry notes that are flattering through the gently sweet finish. Drink now. 4,000 cases made, 2,000 cases imported.RP9191 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 30th Apr 2019 The NV 20 Year Old Tawny Port is a field blend coming in with 126 grams of residual sugar and a bar-top cork. It was bottled in 2018. Dry and stern — this is the style you’d expect from the comments in the accompanying producer note — this shows off some wood, plus very fine concentration and power for the level. This is not always an open and friendly 20, though. The 30, actually, seems far livelier and more expressive (although woodier and more mature, to be sure). This 20 is one that intends to grab your palate and not let go. Some sweetness and a touch of spice around the edges redeem it. That counters the power and woody demeanor. It drank particularly well a couple of days later. On many levels, this is impressive for its age. It works well overall in its style.WS9191 pts. - Wine & Spirits - October 1, 2004 Have a cigar. It’s the right match for this very British, old-school Port. The warm, peppery alcohol seems to ask for it, while the orange zest and walnut flavors will taste refreshing aginst the tobacco smoke. This has a clarity and crispness to keep its fat texture buttoned up.ST9090 pts. - Stephen Tanzer’s International Wine Cellar - Mar/Apr 1998 Complex aromas of toffee, roasted nuts, lead pencil, orange peel and caraway seed. Intensely flavored fruit is silky but nicely delineated; offers a fresh flavor of orange peel. Not at all thick, but brisk and vibrant. Finishes clean and long, with hints of smoked nuts and marzipan. This has far stronger material than the 10-Year-Old, which seemed clumsy and dull in comparison.
SP8888 pts. - Wine Spectator - Dec 15, 2010 Creamy, with lush cherry pie, dark plum and chocolate mousse flavors. The ripe finish features smoke and spice. Drink now.WE8686 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 11/1/2007 This Reserva shows the beginnings of a tawny character while still keeping some of the freshness of young ruby. The color is beginning to go pale, the spirit is showing through, but the red fruits are still there.
RP9393 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 30th Dec 2016 The NV 20 Year Old Tawny Port was bottled in 2016 with a bar-top cork and 132 grams per liter of residual sugar. Gloriously fresh and completely alive, this adds an extra layer of depth and concentration of flavor to the 10 Year Old, of course, but that’s not the main attraction here. This has all of Noval’s typical grace and elegance while the complexity level is nicely above average. Then, its bright demeanor makes its fruit lifted and drives the medley of flavors home. It persists nicely, becoming something to contemplate as well as enjoy. This is a bit on the pricey side for a 20, at least judging from the list price, but it was also one of my favorites here. I don’t want to be a broken record, but remember that aged tawnies should be drunk a bit cool. This was brilliant around 58–60 degrees Fahrenheit, boring around 72.SP9292 pts. - Wine Spectator - Jun 30, 2011 An elegant, delicate Tawny, with a full raft of dried white fruit, toffee, cream and butter flavors. The bright finish offers pear tart and spice notes, with suave, smoky overtones. Drink now.WS9292 pts. - Wine & Spirits - December 1, 2014 Notes of pie crust, cinnamon and sugar place this at the table in lieu of dessert. It’s a warming wine, both brisk and rich in its spice-cake flavors, sunny, schisty and taut.WE8989 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 8/1/2006 There is plenty going on in Noval’s 20-year-old. It is a dry style, but the generous fruit combines marmalade and fresh citrus flavors, along with powerful ripeness. Acidity is there too, giving a lift at the end.
SP8787 pts. - Wine Spectator - Jan 15, 2011 Fresh and vibrant, with good focus to the plum, dark currant and dark chocolate flavors. The balanced finish offers notes of berry and spice.WE8787 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 12/31/2011 Very jammy aromas here, while the wine is ripe and full. It has a soft character, all plum and blackberry flavors, the tannins just showing at the end to balance.
SP9393 pts. - Wine Spectator - Sep 30, 2016 Broad, rich and elegant, with creamy, supple flavors of butterscotch, toasted coconut and hazelnut. The luscious finish is loaded with spice and cocoa details. Seductive. Drink now. 4,000 cases imported.WE9191 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 12/15/2008 An elegant tawny, perfumed with soft tannins and a good edge of wood acidity and spirit. The wine is dry, densely flavored, tasting mature, showing a good balance between young sweetness and age, with everything well integrated.RP8989 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 28th Dec 2018 The NV 20 Years Old Tawny Porto is a typical Douro blend sourced from juice ranging from 15 to 30 years old. It was bottled in September 2018 with a Vinolok cork and 115 grams per liter of residual sugar. This adds a little power and notable complexity to the 10 Year this issue, but it seems a little understated in concentration and surprisingly mature. The brandy is a bit prominent, but that improves. Its bright and gentle demeanor won’t leave you with a “wow” impression, but it sneaks up on you and it’s easy to like eventually. It showed better a few days later, at which point it was notably improved. Maybe some bottle shock plus travel shock before it was tasted rendered it a little closed at first. It finishes with classic flavors laced with caramel nuances. There were 60,000 bottles produced.WS8888 pts. - Wine & Spirits - April 1, 2006 Flavors of salted caramel and orange peel give this tawny complexity. It’s warm with more citrus fruit coming up in the end. For fresh roasted almonds.
SP9393 pts. - Wine Spectator - Feb 28, 2014 Rich, with a spicy nose, this offers flavors of fig, dried apricot, mango and ginger. Complex and elegant, delivering concentrated crème brûlée and tropical fruit notes that linger on the vibrant and buttery finish. Drink now.WE9090 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 8/1/2006 Although this famous name has produced quite a light 20-year-old, that lightness is more than made up for by the beautiful, smooth flavors, the taste of lemon jelly, dried apricots and peaches, and fine, fresh acidity.
