PRR01 Adriano Ramos Pinto Duas Quintas 2006/08 Douro
Intense, clean colour with red tones. A fresh and fruity aroma with cherry and plum highlights. Upon swirling the glass, notes
of liquorice and spices appear. It has a smooth and voluminous entry into the mouth, quickly revealing its freshness and a
consistent, velvety structure. Aromas of red fruit, blackberry, rock-rose and white pepper then reappear, leaving a long and
enjoyable finish.
PRR03 Adriano Ramos Pinto Duas Quintas Collection 2006 Douro
Its appearance is clear and gleaming, with a dark red colour and garnet reflections. It has a surprising, expressive bouquet,
starting with exotic aromas of spices and rock-rose that gradually turn into the sweet scents of ripe fruits, vanilla and cacao.
On the palate, its attack is full of volume and freshness, showing its aromatic complexity. The wine has a long, elegant finish
that associates a velvety structure with balanced acidity.
PRR02 Adriano Ramos Pinto Duas Quintas Reserva 2007 WS 90 Douro
Bright, gleaming, intense colour with shades of red. A complex nose, in which subtle hints of orange blossom and spices
give way to aromas of red fruits like strawberries, plums and cherries. It hits the palate with volume and develops a good
tannic structure. The coolness characteristic of 2007 has given the wine a good balance and a long finish.

PRP03 Ramos Pinto Ruby Port N.V. Douro
PRP04 Ramos Pinto Tawny Port N.V. WS 90 Douro
A tawny red with a topaz meniscus. The first aroma gives the impression of buoyancy and develops into a great
smoothness acquired from having been matured in wood. In the mouth, it feels light, warm and very soft as a result of its
ageing. This “adolescent” is a mature and fruity Port with a complex and delicate character. Its finish is perfectly balanced,
giving it a flavoursome delicateness.
PRP01 Ramos Pinto 10 Years Quinta de Ervamoira Port N.V. WS 90 Douro
Orange-red in colour with a touch of green. A well-rounded, generous aroma with balance and a hint of wine. Fruit aromas
include orange, apricot and plum. Vanilla and old Port wine casks make up its woody aromas. This is a fruity tawny variety.
In the mouth, one can still taste the fresh fruit surrounded by the ageing in wood. A good structure and perfect balance
between fruit and alcohol. The attack on the palate is smooth and full-bodied. Following the initial oily feel, a fresh, soft
fruitiness appears which finishes with a slightly acidic, woody note.

PRP06 Ramos Pinto Vintage Port 2000 RP 91 Douro
An exceptional dark colour with blue tones. It presents a complex ensemble of aromas that combines red fruit compote, ripe
plum and small-berried fruits with notes of dark chocolate and pepper. Elegant and well-structured on the palate, extremely
full-bodied and full of fruit flavours, a good concentration and firm tannins that will give it great ageing potential. A seductive,
warm finish that is long-lasting and velvety.
PRP06 Ramos Pinto Vintage Port 1982 Douro
A splendid, deep colour typical of this harvest. Highly concentrated and still rising smoothly, it has well-developed blue
tones. Dense tears. Discreet, generous, feminine and well characterised by its harmony and advanced maturity, it offers us
aromas of violet, plum, chocolate and ripe fruit. Aged and wine-infused wood, a hint of vanilla and plum brandy.A smooth
and velvety attack on the palate, the perfect balance between body and acidity. Notes of prune sustained by smooth,
mature tannins. Soft and enveloping with a perfect finish.
