• My vineyards are from one of the richest and most beautiful parts of Portugal, due to the diversity of the grape varieties, types of soil and the unique climate - with gently sloping hills and the cooling breeze from the nearby Atlantic both key to producing quality grapes.
• I sampled the wine from over 300 of my best barrels before choosing the top 10 to create my 10 Barricas. This is a wine that has been made specifically for the Angels, to add a wine with more complexity and structure to the rest of my range.
• My 10 Barricas is a dark ruby colour and deliciously rich and smooth. It has intense dark and red berry flavours, with spices and oak from ageing in American, French and Portuguese barriques, and a lovely complex structure.

• My dear friends, I have some fantastic news for you. Firstly, I must say that if you ever believe in someone, don't ever give up as dreams are possible.
• My dream was to make a rosé Port, a delightful, light, slightly sweet, mouthful of sheer intoxication. Pauline, my Archangel argued, trapped the boss on an aeroplane for 2 hours, got more Angels on board and finally she persuaded Naked to make it happen!
• I'm absolutely overwhelmed and so proud that we all pulled together to help. My heart has soared and floated off the rooftops!

• Jen learned from the best. Her family are famous for their dessert wines. She's stepping out of her father's shadow with this delicious sticky.
• Only the very best grapes get this sort of star treatment. 10 years in the making, they've been lavished with tender love and affection.
• This gloriously sweet, barrel-aged, golden nectar is one of the best we've EVER tasted.

• The Algarve is a well known region for sun seekers, but what most people don't know is that it's an absolutely fantastic region for quality Portuguese winemaking. Warm weather + coastal breeze = vibrant, exciting wines.

• Portuguese wines are very often blends of a handful of carefully selected grape varieties, and when you taste a wine with the quality of this little beauty, you can taste exactly why. The balance is superb, each variety brings something unique to the table, creating a rich, powerful wine that will take a hold of anyone from clued up wine buffs, to those on the hunt for the perfect bottle to greet the weekend with.

• With its deep, almost violet colour, this is a wine that looks just as rich and unctuous as it tastes. Starting with wonderful aromas of jammy blackberries, the palate reveals velvety fruits alongside warming flavours of chocolate and vanilla. It has the long, balanced finish of a truly classy act.

• If you’re a fan of Portuguese wines, you need to give critically-acclaimed winemaker Joao Pires’ brand new Aventureiro Tinto a whirl. This seriously moreish, fruity nectar is an absolutely classic Douro Valley red, made by a born and bred native of the region.

• Having grown up among the riverside terraces and elevated vineyards of the Douro, Joao has an intricate knowledge of the region and knows where to find the best parcels of fruit. He was so excited to create this incredible new Tinto just for you, to show off the incredible quality and class his region has to offer.

• It’s a delicious blend of 5 different Portuguese grapes all wrapped up in a warm oaky hug, with layers upon layers of flavour and complexity. It’s packed with rich dark fruits, bramble and liquorice, and notes of black pepper and olive with nice tannins on the finish. This wine is already super-yummy now, but give it a few years to age and that flavour and complexity will just multiply in heaps and spades.

• 2020 was a very difficult year for Douro's viticulture. The challenge for Oscar was to be able to pick the grapes at the perfect ripeness. He visited the vineyard every other day to taste the berries to ensure the right timing. Now he can say all those visits were absolutely worth it!
• A deep and intense ruby-colored wine, ripe yet elegant with a fresh profile provided by the Touriga Franca grapes, and a nice structural, full-bodied character from the Touriga Nacional.
• The finish lingers on spicy, dark fruit and dark chocolate notes. Oscar has truly struck the perfect balance here, producing a bottle of what he calls 'happiness in a glass' direct from the Douro Valley.
