TASTING NOTES When there is an indication of age in the Porto Tawny, it means that the Port was obtained by blending different wines, whose average age corresponds to that shown on the label. For the production of Porto Tawny 20 Years Old different harvests have been used; contains up to 50 different wines that are between 10 and 50 years old. The result is a port wine whose average age is 20 years. The vinification takes place through a long maceration on the skins and a fermentation at high temperatures, thus giving an excellent structure. The long aging in small oak barrels with a capacity of 550 liters (Pipas) gives life to this refined fortified red wine, with a complex structure and a facet of tasty warm notes, on the palate it is full-bodied, velvety and persistent. Optimal!
