Quinta da Corte, 20 Year Old Tawny Port
$94.99
A Quinta da Côrte Port is prepared like a grand cru: it requires precise standards, determination and know-how. Gold in color, with mahogany reflections, this high-class Tawny immediately seduces with the complexity of its aromas: a heady mix of currants, liquorice, cinnamon, candied citrus peel, coffee, cashew, caramel, walnut… and more. The palate is soft and harmonious, with a fine width which develops in an equally complex fashion. Fresh, flavorsome and well-balanced, it progresses to a long, rich and well-defined finish.
Traditional, in granite vats called lagares, where the grapes are pressed by foot treading in order to extract the component elements of the grapes with great precision.
Aging: In casks (“Pipas”) of 600 litres
