Warre’s 1994 Library Release Vintage Port

Snowdonia Cheese Company

£110

Bottled in 1996 and matured for 25 years in the Symington family cellars at the Warre’s lodge in Vila Nova de Gaia, this 1994 vintage has been described as “one of the best of the 20th century”. With its creamy texture and generous notes of brambles, plums, black cherries and tobacco, this limited-release port – presented in a wooden gift box – is a beautiful match for hard cheeses. Decant prior to drinking.

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as SNOWDONIA CHEESE COMPANY LTD, number 04171512. Checked 2026-09-06.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
No majority shareholding traced outside the UK. Companies House.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
