Cálem Port, founded in 1859 by Antonio Alves Cálem, has a rich history of four generations. Since releasing its first Vintage Port in 1870, Cálem has gained a reputation for being one of the Douro’s most celebrated Port producers. The imposing winery is situated in Vila Nova de Gaia, on the south bank of the Douro River.
Cálem 2015 Vintage Port is made from grapes from the Upper Douro, which result in wines that are more intense, laden with black fruit aromas. The wine was made in stainless steel “robotic treading lagares” and fermented with 50% of the stems.
Tasting Notes: This Cálem vintage is dark red in colour and slightly closed on the nose. The wine nevertheless displays aromas of very ripe black fruit and hints of spice and cocoa. In the mouth, it is robust and intense, with elegant and well-established tannins that linger, revealing a good balance between acidity and sweetness. It finishes with jammy fruit flavours, making this vintage easy, sweet, with a long and intense finish. It has great ageing potential.
