Made by a family owned Port House situated high above the Douro Valley. Delaforce His Eminences Choice 10 year old tawny has been aged in the cellars in Villa di Gaia. Mellow from the oak ageing and rich yet elegant. Drink with strong cheese, nuts or chocolate.
The Delaforces are an old family of Huguenot origin which can trace its history back over 700 years. Their involvement in the port business dates from 1834 when John Fleurriet Delaforce came to Oporto to set up the new firm of Martinez Gassiot on behalf of its partners. In 1868 his son George Henry Delaforce founded his own firm, the House of Delaforce.
In the years that followed, Delaforce rapidly became established as one of the leading port wine companies. Between 1894 and 1906 the company was distinguished with a warrant as supplier of port wine to the Portuguese Royal Household.
Over the years, Delaforce has developed a reputation for its outstanding blending and ageing skills which express themselves in the company's renowned aged tawny ports, His Eminence's Choice and Curious & Ancient. Both brands were originally created in the 1930's. Today, Delaforce is owned and run by Real Companhia Velha, who have over 250 years of existence and uninterrupted activity in the Port Wine Trade.
Almost every port style is represented in the Delaforce range of wines which are sold throughout the world. Its distinguished portfolio of products continues to earn the company its recognition as the master of the port blend.
