Port & Dessert
For when your sweet tooth gets the best of you, we've got a delectable selection of port and dessert wine that will hit the spot.
Port is a type of sweet, highly concentrated fortified wine that is perfect for pairing with dark chocolate or enjoying on its own as an after-dinner treat. We carry classic examples of Ruby, Tawny, White, and Vintage port, in addition to a wide selection of less common varieties.
Our dessert wine selection includes a broad range of delightfully sweet wines produced in many different parts of the world, from many different grape varieties, in many different ways. With everything from Italian Vinsanto that goes perfectly with an after-dinner biscotti to French Sauternes (sometimes referred to as "liquid gold"), you'll definitely find the perfect way to end any meal.
A couple of our recent after-dinner favorites inlude:
Heitz Cel lar 2004 Grignolino Port, Napa Valley, California, $34 Intense, concentrated ruby red fruit. A fantastic Napa Valley take on the traditional ruby port style. There's a reason Heitz Cellars has become well known for their port...
Buccia Nera 2004 Vin Santo, Tuscany, Italy, $26 Made from a blend of Trebbiano and Malvasia grapes, this rich, sweet Italian dessert wine is full of lovely caramel, hazelnut, and date smells and flavors. Absolutely mouthwatering.
