Description

Fonseca - 10 Year Old Aged Tawny Porto is a beautifully complex and rich fortified wine from one of Portugal's most respected port houses. Known for its dedication to tradition and quality, Fonseca has crafted this 10-year-old tawny port to offer a well-balanced and nuanced profile, developed through a decade of aging in oak barrels. The extended aging process gives this port its characteristic nutty, caramelized flavors while preserving the lush fruit notes that make tawny ports so enjoyable.

Fonseca’s 10-Year-Old Aged Tawny Porto is crafted from carefully selected grapes from the Douro Valley, one of Portugal’s most prestigious wine regions. After fermentation, the wine is aged in seasoned oak casks for ten years, allowing it to mellow and develop a silky, smooth texture with complex flavors. The result is a tawny port with a harmonious blend of fruitiness and maturation notes, perfect for savoring as an aperitif or dessert wine.

TASTE:
Smooth and velvety, with flavors of ripe figs, dried apricot, and toasted almonds, layered with hints of vanilla, caramel, and a touch of cinnamon. The sweetness is balanced by a refreshing acidity, creating a well-rounded experience.

Food Pairing

Fonseca - 10-Year-Old Tawny Porto pairs beautifully with a variety of sweet and savory dishes:

Cheeses: Pairs especially well with aged cheeses, such as gouda, blue cheese, or sharp cheddar, where the port’s sweetness balances the cheese's saltiness.

Fruit Desserts: Complements fruit tarts, especially those made with fig, pear, or apple, where the fruit flavors echo those in the wine.

Foie Gras: A luxurious pairing with foie gras, where the port’s sweetness and acidity provide a counterbalance to the richness.
