Quevedo

10 Year Old Tawny Port
** 90 Points- Wine Advocate **

Description and Reviews:
Quevedo’s 10-Year-Old Tawny is aged in small oak barrels, which promotes oxidation and the development of complex flavours.

Tasting Notes
Beautiful amber-tawny colour, indicative of its aging process. The nose is filled with aromas of dried fruit, cinnamon and walnuts. On the palate the nutty flavours predominate, along with a touch of coffee and chocolate.The wine has a balanced sweetness with a refreshing acidity that makes it elegant and not cloying. Long, smooth finish with lingering notes of caramel and dried fruits.

Serving & Food Pairing:
Tawny Ports are ready-to drink and do not require decanting. Best enjoyed slightly chilled at 12-13ºC they will work wonders if pairing with treacle tart, crème brulee or nut based desserts, like hazelnut praline.

Quevedo is an incredible, innovative producer that is very highly regarded amongst port aficionados. The family have been making port wine for generations however their produce was for merchants based in Vila Nova de Gaia. Family-owned for over 100 years, the estate is now in the capable hands of Oscar and Claudia, the new generation of winemakers. Together, they have developed and innovated to produce an outstanding portfolio of ports and still wines. The Quevedo estate and winery is in S. João da Pesqueira, a small town in the heart of Douro Valley. With 112 hectares of vineyards in prime locations, a modern winery, and generations of knowledge it is easy to see why their ports and still wines are consistently rated as outstanding.
