Fonseca Quinta Do Panascal Vintage Port (Wooden Box) 2008 Vintage

Similarly to the Fonseca Vintage Ports and the Guimaraens Vintage Ports, blended from the wines of its three estates, the company also offers rich, velvety Single Quinta Vintage Ports produced entirely from the produce of Quinta do Panascal.

These are the pure expression of the estate's terroir. Like the Guimaraens Vintage Ports, these are made in years that produce smoother, more accessible wines that do not need to be stored for a long time before being enjoyed.

Situated on the steep right bank of the river Távora, Quinta do Panascal is one of the most renowned vineyards in the Douro region. In the words of a saying, "From Roncão and Panascal come the best wines of Portugal".

Since its acquisition by the company in 1978, the property has undergone a major investment aimed not only at renovating the vineyard, but also to ensure that the property produces excellent wines, which today form the backbone of the Fonseca Vintage Port blend.

The wines from Quinta do Panascal are rich, with a voluptuous fruitiness, density in the mouth and a velvety texture.
