White Port
White Port is made from white grapes, and comes in two styles – dry and sweet – although even the driest styles are on the medium side. The sweet version is the traditional style of White Port and tends to be rich and grapey. Best drunk lightly-chilled with a plate of nuts (preferably while watching the sun go down over the Douro River), this underrated Port style can make an excellent apéritif.

A tall, chilled glass of white Port and tonic will convey you magically to the sun-drenched, riparian terraces of the bucolic Quinta de la Rosa in no time at all. Rich and rounded, the slight sweetness works well (try adding chopped mint rather than orange or lemon) and is wonderfully refreshing. Equally, it is delicious on its own – but always with a bowl of salted almonds.
