COLOUR
Amber with green hints
A complex and intense expression with notes of citrus marmalade, dry fruits, nutmeg, marzipan and almond essence.
Sharp entrance due to the high acidity built through all the years of evaporation in the casks. Quickly the Port becomes very smooth, balanced by its sweetness and the appereance of the dry fruits, grilled nuts and caramel flavors. From the midpalate, it evolves to cloves, ground coffee, and bitter almonds. The many layers of flavours build towards an explosive finish, taken over by the citrus, cinnamon and ginger notes that linger persistently.
Aging:
Aged and matured in seasoned chestnut wood casks. This Tawny was blended with other vintages, making an average of 40 years aging time. No filtration. Masterblender: Claudia Quevedo
