Tasting Notes
A complex and nuanced flavour profile, where layers of dried fruits, nuts, and spices are beautifully balanced by notes of caramel and subtle oak. The 20-year aging also gives the wine its deep amber hue, characteristic of a finely matured tawny port. On the palate, Quinta das Carvalhas 20 Year Old Tawny is velvety and rich, with a smooth, lingering finish that speaks to its quality and the expertise behind its production.
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 paired with treacle tart, nutty cakes, dried fruits, or rich cheeses.
