Viuva Jose Gomes da Silva & Filhos Collares Genuino 1962

An extremely unusual wine from a little known Portuguese region called Colares. Most famous during the 1900s when, thanks to it's sandy costal topography, it was one of the few regions not decimated by the Phylloxera infestation that destroyed most of Europe's vines and thus became a mainstay of many tables. It has since - again thanks to its topography, which makes grape cultivation extremely labor intensive - become somewhat of a rarity. Known for it's incredible longevity this is a truly unique style of wine. This particular example is a 1962 vintage wine produced in Lisboa by Viuva Jose Gomes da Silva & Filhos
