Layered and complex with pronounced notes of candied tropical fruit, dried stone fruit and hazelnut. Touches of bright orange peel lift the palate. A refined and powerful example. 2022 Rating
Product Description:
"Specially selected Portos are chosen for ageing in wooden casks where gradual exposure to air concentrates the flavours and transforms the rich ruby colour to amber, creating the rare and delicious Sandeman Porto Tawny 40 Years Old. The ageing process intensifies the fruit creating the complex flavours characteristic of Tawny Porto. A perfect Porto to end any meal and an inspiration for good conversation.
An intense, deeply flavoured Porto Tawny 40 Years Old, with a massive bouquet suggesting vanilla, oak and honey, and a mouthful of very complex flavours of dried fruits, spices, and nuts. As the wine unfolds smoothly and develops in the mouth, one discovers a superb balance of wood ageing and vibrancy, characteristic of Sandeman Tawny Portos." - Winery
