Broadbent Port

About

The first vintage of Broadbent port was produced in 1994, when Bartholomew Broadbent, after spearheading the port revival in the U.S. and Canada, launched his own brand. That inaugural vintage was voted best-in-show at a comprehensive tasting of vintage port during the Aspen Food & Wine Classic. Broadbent port is made, to Broadbent’s specifications, by the esteemed winemaker Dirk Niepoort.

White Port

Douro

Harvest & Vintage Notes
The white port for all Porto Tonicos - a little lemon and basil or a little lime and mint and you have a low alcohol, refreshing cocktail. We always recommend the lime-based Swaan tonic from Badenhorst. Honey, nutty, perfectly sweet.

Vintage Port

Douro

Harvest & Vintage Notes
Only made in the best of years, we strive to keep a few vintages on hand at all times - if we don't sell out! Foot stomped to begin natural fermentation in granite lagares. Aged two years in barrel. Will last another 25 or so in bottle. Dark fruit, powerful, supple tannins.

Tawny Port

Douro

Harvest & Vintage Notes
Our tawny ports are so fresh and balanced they can be drunk as aperitifs. Starting with our youngest, this tawny is made in stainlees steel, stone lagares, and older casks. Red fruit, nutty, soft.

Our 10 Year is blend of tawny ports aged 8 to 15 years. So quaffable, so quenching. Crunchy red fruit, acidity, serve over ice.

20 Year Tawny Port

Douro

Harvest & Vintage Notes
Not our oldest, but our flagship tawny. Fermented in lagares on the skins to allow for beautiful flavor development. A blend of wines aged 15 to 30 years. The epitome of balance. Hint of red fruit, dried stone fruit, elegant.

30 Year Tawny Port

Douro

Harvest & Vintage Notes
Made in minute quantities because it is rare that a port will mature this long. A blend of wines 25 to 40 years old. This is our first 30 year tawny and we couldn't be prouder. Dried fruit, mixed nuts, silk.
