Carvalhas 10 Year Old Tawny Port
A masterful blend of carefully aged Ports, showcasing the rich complexity and smoothness that defines an exceptional Tawny. Its age provides a refined character with layers of dried fruits, nuts, caramel, and a hint of vanilla. Subtle aromas of toffee and oak add depth. The mouthfeel is smooth and silky leading to a long and warming finish, with lingering notes of caramel and nuts.

2017 Late Bottled Vintage (LBV) Port
Deep ruby with a vibrant, youthful appearance. Intense aromas of blackberries, plums, and cherries, complemented by hints of dark chocolate, spice, and subtle oak. Full-bodied and rich palate with smooth tannins providing structure and depth. Persistent and satisfying finish, with a robust fruit character and hints of spice.

Serving & Food Pairing:
Serve your tawny slightly chilled at 12-13ºC and pair with nutty cakes.
Serve your LBV slightly below room temperature, ideally between 15-17°C and pair with goats cheese, almonds, blue cheese, brownies and chocolate.
