Quinta do Vallado 30 Year Old Tawny Port 50cl
A blend of Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz aged in very old 600 litre oak casks and other old oak vats.
Very intense, combining dried fruits and honey on the nose, with flavours of orange jam on the palate, and a very long, persistent finish.
" The NV 30 Year Old Tawny Port is an old vines field blend bottled in 2015. It comes in with 159 grams per liter of residual sugar. This is most notable initially for the rich and unctuous finish, leaning more to caramel than molasses. Then, the darker flavors come out. It is not always the biggest or the most powerful, but it adds good acidity that laces through the notable sweetness, and it becomes increasingly complex. It is seriously delicious, an important point in its favor, and that unctuous feel caresses the palate. There were just 1,000 500-milliliter bottles produced. " Mark Squires robertparker.com 93/100
