Quevedo, Non Vintage

Special Tawny Reserve in Presentation Ships Decanter

Description and Reviews:
The Quevedo Special Reserve Tawny is a fortified wine from Port produced by Quevedo from the best of tinta roriz, touriga nacional, tinta barroca, touriga franca and tinto cão grapes. It has been matured in oak for around eight years to give it a lovely deep tawny colour and a nutty, caramel taste.

Tasting Notes
"Tawny garnet colour with bricking on a wide rim. Intoxicating scents of red fruits, licorice, toffee and a backdrop of cocoa play gently across the nose. Medium weight and bolstered by crisp acidity and warming spirit which melds with red wild berries, almond and spicy cinnamon flavors, ending with a long crescendo. A classy entry level Tawny on its own and it would be stellar with the right pairing, like Serra de Estrela cheese." - 88 points, Roy Hersh, May 2010.
