Vintage ports are made from a single exceptional harvest, and only when declared a vintage year. 

It spends a short time in wood (30 months), and then Bottled unfiltered.

These ports are made to mature in the bottle for many years. 

Silval is considered a particularly accessible style of Vintage Port Wine, known for its freshness, exuberance and fruity character. 

It was created for the Vintage Port Wine lovers who do not want to wait too long to enjoy it. 

Serving Suggestions: The wine benefits from being served slightly chilled, between 12º-16ºC. 

Older Ports, such as Vintage Ports, often contain sediment and benefit from decanting, this procedure helps separate the wine from the sediment, allowing the flavours to shine.

Simply pour the wine slowly into a decanter, stopping when sediment appears at the neck of the bottle.

The bottle should be kept upright, protected from light and at a cool and constant temperature. 

Food Pairing: 1997 Silval Vintage Port, a full-bodied and aromatic wine pairs well with strong, aged cheeses like Stilton or artisan blue cheeses, chocolate-based desserts.
