Product details
All grapes are crushed in traditional granite lagares until fermentation is stopped with the addition of brandy. These wines are carefully aged in old oak barrels for many years. This slow aging process transforms the wine's bright red colour into more amber and copper tones, creating a Tawny Port. The longer the wine spends in the barrel, the more concentrated the flavours of honey, toffee, caramel, tobacco, dark or white chocolate, and ripe or dried fruits such as grapes, figs, and plums become. The wines are bottled only to order. This wine was kept separately throughout its aging process and is a wine from a single year. It is therefore bottled as a Very Old Colheita Tawny.
