Dessert & Port Wine
20 Year Old Tawny Port
Fonseca · Porto, Portugal
About this wine
Fonseca is one of the most venerable and historically important Port houses, globally revered for the sheer power and luscious fruit of their fortified wines. This 20 Year Old Tawny Port is a masterclass in oxidative aging, blending Tinto Cão, Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional, and Tinta Roriz. The very full-bodied Portuguese dessert wine balances its immense sweetness with high acidity and a potent 20.0% ABV. It offers a decadent, nutty palate that pairs gorgeously with beef or a platter of maturated hard cheeses.
