This single-vintage tawny Port is barrel-matured for around 18 years, to develop its beautiful tawny colour and thrillingly deep, rich, complex notes of maple syrup, walnuts, spice, orange zest and honey. Full-bodied and in the mouth, it has exquisite balance, masses of complexity, velvety tannins and a long, refined finish. Drinking beautifully now, this is superb. From a field blend of traditional Douro varieties and old vines (60+ years), the fruit is hand-harvested into small boxes, hand-sorted in the winery and then foot-trodden in a granite 'lagare' before fermentation, fortification and ageing in 550l Portuguese oak barrels.

Winemaking
Grapes from 60 year-old vines, grown on socalcos (terraces supported by stone walls) are handpicked andrigorously inspected, before being foot-trodden in a traditional lagar (open tank built from granite). Fermentation is stopped by adding grape spirit, and the Port is transferred to 550 litre Portuguese oak barrels, where it ages for around 18 years.
