Quinta Gaivosa Amphitheatrum Port Vintage 2020
Completely opaque. An explosion of aromas! Wild berries, aromatic herbs, plum, licorice, eucalyptus leaf, graphite... extremely complex. The level of concentration is impressive! It reaches every taste bud, yet with a disarming sweetness. An absolutely extraordinary wine that could last for over 100 years.

95/100 - The Wine Advocate Robert Parker
From the distinguished Alves de Sousa family, comes this very fine 2020 vintage port. This port reflects all the hard work, attention, and deep respect for Port Wine that the producer is well-known for. On the palate, this one is an explosion of wild fruits, aromatic herbs, plum, liquorice, eucalyptus leaf, graphite... extremely complex. An extraordinary wine overall that is well suited to cellaring.
