This 30 Year Old aged Tawny Port from Messias has a characteristic bouquet of of dried fruits, spices and roasting, most evident in wines matured in the barrel. In the mouth, turns out to be a soft and harmonious wine, with a very persistent aroma and a good long finish.

***92 Points Robert Parker***
Great character and complex flavours, dried fruits and fine oak mixed with spices. Full and firm, artful in the taste. Fine and softly in the mouth, long and pleasing finish.
