Delivery in 5-7 Business days - Large stock

A deep but very bright tawny hue, quite reddish at the core, with a tawnier/yellower penumbra. With caramelised oranges to the nose and citrusy palate, it’s still fruity and elegant with toasted almonds, apricot jam and bourbon vanilla layers. Again, very silky with cassia bark and a burnish of nutty oak to the back palate (c) The Wine Detective, Sarah Ahmed
 
Food-Pairing
a perfect match to sweet pastries, such as apple pie with cinnamon, as well a delicacy with strong cheeses and dark chocolate, or just on his own at the end of a meal
 
Grapes: Tinta Barocca, Touriga Francesa, Touriga Nacional
Aged between 12 and 25 years in small oak barrels, the result of several harvests that the family kept rigorously  in their cellars
  
Winemaker Jaime Costa is in charge of the portfolio. Having worked for 16 years at Burmester, the former Revista de Vinhos Fortified Winemaker of the Year 2005 is plainly thrilled once again to have such fine and rare aged Port wines at his disposal. And his timing is good. The recent spate of headline grabbing, luxury-priced Very Old Tawny Ports means that Tawny Ports are, at last, having their day in the sun
