Tasting notes
This is a tawny red with a topaz meniscus. The first aroma gives the impression of buoyancy and develops into a great smoothness acquired from having been matured in wood. In the mouth, it feels light, warm and very soft as a result of its ageing. This adolescent Port is mature and fruity, with a complex and delicate character. Its finish is perfectly balanced, giving it some delicateness.
Vinification
This Tawny is a three to five-year-old blend obtained by blending wines with different degrees of maturity brought about by the ageing process in barrels and hogshead casks. Alcohol: 19,5% vol.; residual sugar 102 g/l.
Ageing
3 to 5 years of ageing in barrels and hogshead casks.
Food pairing
Due to its characteristics as an open wine, the Tawny Port should be drunk in a warm environment. It can be served as an aperitif or with melon, tomatoes filled with fresh cheese and smoked salmon, desserts that are not overly sweet or with cheeses. Serve between 16°C and 18°C. Store the bottle upright, in a cool, dry and dark place.
