2014 Port Vintage Report
Rain caused significant damage in the first half of the year, then a cool August didn’t help matters. Yields will be low, quality is not remarkable, and vintage declarations unlikely for most producers apart from Quinta Do Noval and Churchill's who declared a small batch of their 2014 ports.

Palmer Port, 2014
Colheita Port, Douro
Exclusive to Vintage Wine & Port.
The 2014 Palmer colheita Port is a type of tawny port wine made from a single vintage and aged in wood for at least seven years before being bottled. The 2014 Colheita Port, therefore, would have been aged in casks many years before being bottled.

Quinta de la Rosa, 2014
Vintage Port
Quinta de La Rosa is a small estate in the heart of the Port wine-growing region in Alto Douro, near Pinhao, owned and operated by the Bergqvist family.
The Quinta and its vineyards were given to the Bergqvist family as a Christening present by the Feuerheerds, who established the property in 1906.
It remains one of the few Single Quinta where the vineyards start at the bank of the Douro and rise 450 meters to the towering top of the mountain. From the river's edge to the top, one passes through 11 different microclimates. This gives La Rosa great flexibility to add variety and complexity to its Ports. …

Quinta do Noval, 2014
Vintage Port, Douro
Just 1000 cases declared by Quinta do Noval
Managing Director Christian Seely:
“I am extremely happy to be able to release Quinta do Noval Vintage Port 2014.
We continue to follow our slightly eccentric path at Quinta do Noval.

This led us to declare very small amounts of Quinta do Noval Vintage Port in 2012, 2013, even after the generally declared year of 2011. …
