Barreto Cellars 2004 Vintage Port
- Overall rating 
From the Winery
Iberian varietals. California terroir. Incredible wines.
Barreto Cellars is a Central Coast Winery dedicated to producing premium-quality wines featuring grape varietals from the Iberian Peninsula (Spain and Portugal). Having relatives who migrated to America from these regions, we have a strong connection and desire to develop wines utilizing these varietals, a number of which are grown in small amounts in select vineyards throughout California.
The Mediterranean climate and soil is very similar to much of California, providing us with the opportunity to create new varietal wines and blends unfamiliar to many wine drinkers. Currently we are creating wines in the New World style, while trying to capture the truly unique characteristics each variety possesses.
Tasting Notes
Brimming with berries and spice, the seductive nose of our vintage Port invites you to discover what lies beneath its many layers of aromas. The velvety texture reveals more fruit, chocolate and a mature tannin structure.
