Graham's 40 yr Tawny
| Description: | Golden amber with a pale green tinge at the. rim which denotes great quality and class. Very complex on the nose with a powerful. fragrance that belies its age. The palate is a. gamut of flavours, ranging from delicate fruit. and raisins to burnt toffee and chocolate. The. persistent aftertaste is sheer pleasure. An. excellent alternative to Vintage Port at less. formal occasions. Will keep for some weeks. after opening. Region Description. Aged tawny port is a fortified Portuguese wine aged in wood and one of the best known styles of port. It is generally a blend of ports from several years, aged in barrels for at least six years until it takes on the nutty, brown sugar and vanilla flavors, a silky texture and changes in color from deep ruby red to tawny. It is designated on the label as 10, 20, 30 or more years old (the age is the average age of the wine by taste). Many prefer its gentleness compared to the full intensity of vintage ports. It can be drunk both as an aperitif and as a dessert wine. (See PORT for more information on the region and fortification process.) |
