Dry White Port
Churchill’s 10 Year Old Dry White Port is an emblematic product for Churchill’s and unique in its style. This long ageing period gives it a balance and smoothness that is in a class of its own.
This white Port has a vibrant golden colour with grated nutmeg and eucalyptus on the nose. On the palate this wine is fresh and complex with a long peppery finish.
