About

Churchill's White Dry Port is a distinctive, dry white portwine produced from a blend of traditional white grape varieties native to the Douro Valley region of Portugal. Unlike the sweeter versions of port, this dry expression is crafted to offer a crisp, refreshing alternative, showcasing Churchill's innovation within the classic port wine category. This particular port is aged in wood, resulting in a complex and sophisticated drink that bridges the gap between traditional port wine lovers and those seeking a dryer, more versatile wine.

Producer

Churchill's Port has a distinct individual style of fortified wine that combines the skill of the winemaker, the quality of the grape varieties and the characteristics of a particular terroir. John Graham founded Churchill’s in 1981, and at the time it was the first new port wine venture in fifty years. He wanted to continue the old traditions of his family for the production of port, but at the same time create a port with a unique style. The company was named after his wife Caroline Churchill. “My ports are made with the greatest possible amount of natural fermentation and the least possible use of brandy for fixing. I love to make wines in the most natural way possible. Most of all I strive for balance. I believe that Churchill's ports have managed to achieve this. We are fully confident in the main characteristics of our style, which are easily recognizable, ”said John Graham.

Tasting notes

On the palate, Churchill’s White Dry Port presents vibrant notes of ripe citrus fruits, almond, and a hint of spice, complemented by a subtle oakiness and a fresh, balanced acidity that makes it exceptionally drinkable. The finish is clean and refreshing, with a delicate minerality that invites another sip.

Pairing

This port pairs beautifully with salted almonds, olives, or other savory appetizers, where its dryness and acidity cut through the richness, enhancing the flavors of both the food and the wine. It also serves as a superb companion to seafood dishes, such as grilled white fish or seafood pasta, where its crispness and fruit-forward profile elevate the meal to a new level of sophistication.

Oporto (Porto), Portugal's second-largest city, is the spiritual home of Port wine. Located in northern Portugal, Oporto marks the point at which the Douro river flows into the Atlantic Ocean. Oporto has been of great historical importance to the European wine trade since the Anglo-Franco trade wars of the 17th century. During that time the London market developed a taste for the dark 'blackstrap' wines that were shipped out of the city. The old Oporto city center is a classified Unesco World Heritage Site. Greater Oporto includes the historic city of Vila Nova de Gaia, on the southern banks of the Douro. Here, Port was traditionally shipped in casks down the Douro to be stored in lodges for aging until ready to export. Since the construction of hydroelectric dams further up the river, it is not possible for flat-bottomed barco rabelo boats to travel to and from the Port estates. Consequently, Port casks are now transported by truck, though the aging process remains unchanged. In the early days, Port wines were dry and astringent, as brandy was added to the finished wine to stabilize it before it was shipped to London. The modern style of Port can be traced back to 1678, when the Abbot of Lamego was adding brandy to the wine before it had finished fermenting. By arresting fermentation, he could retain the natural sweetness of the ultra-ripe grapes and create a fortified wine capable of improving with age. Over the next 50 years, the style became so popular that demand for Port spawned various imitations and shortcuts. One of the most famously documented liberties taken with Port production during that time was using elderberry juice to add depth of color and flavor to otherwise vapid wines. The practice was eventually outlawed and by 1756 regional boundaries and rules had been established to govern port production. The year 1933 was important for the port trade: the Port Wine Shippers' Guild and the Port Wine Institute were established to promote and control the quality of exported wines. The Port Wine Institute started grading port estates based on their location, soil type, age of vines and grape varieties grown. Classifications ranging from A to F were awarded to each estate based on the final score. This system is still in place today, though now administered by the Instituto dos Vinhos do Douro e Porto (IVDP), established in 2003.
