Tasting Notes
A 20 year Old tawny port with a deep amber or mahogany colour with copper hints, indicating extended aging. It has a rich, sweet taste with a well-balanced acidity, fruity notes, nutty undertones, and delicate spice notes. The woodiness is smooth and velvety, with integrated oak flavours and a velvety texture. The finish is long and lingering, with a harmonious blend of sweetness, spice, and wood.
Serving & Food Pairing:
Tawny Ports are ready-to drink and do not require decanting. Best enjoyed slightly chilled at 12-13ºC they will work wonders if pairing with treacle tart, crème brulee or nut based desserts, like hazelnut praline.
