Description

Fonseca - 20 Year Old Aged Tawny Porto is an exceptional and sophisticated tawny port, representing the mastery of Fonseca in aging and blending fortified wines. After two decades in oak barrels, this port showcases a remarkable complexity with layers of flavor, combining rich dried fruit with warm, nutty, and spicy notes. Fonseca’s 20-Year-Old Tawny Porto offers a refined experience, designed to be sipped slowly and savored, making it ideal for special occasions or as a luxurious finish to a meal.

Fonseca - 20 Year Old Aged Tawny Porto is crafted from premium grapes grown in the Douro Valley, with the wine aged in small oak casks for 20 years. This extended aging allows the wine to develop a golden-brown tawny hue and a silky, polished texture. Over time, the fruitiness mellows and integrates with the oak, resulting in a well-rounded port that combines mature and fresh flavors.
