2018 Fonseca Guimaraens Vintage Porto Porto

Description

The Fonseca Guimaraens Vintage 2013 shows a deep, intense color with magenta reflections that hint at a wine of great concentration. In the nose it stands out for its opulent expression of ripe, rich, succulent wild fruits, accompanied by notes of juniper, cedar, smoke, and dark chocolate, with subtle floral and aromatic herb nuances that add complexity and elegance. On the palate it reveals great volume and intensity, with firm, well‑structured tannins that envelop the tongue, culminating in a long, powerful, and persistent finish. A seductive and expressive vintage, ready to be enjoyed while young, yet with excellent aging potential in the bottle. Fonseca has been part of the first category of Vintage Port producers since the mid‑19th century. Fonseca Vintage Ports are known for their exuberant fruitiness that develops great opulence and complexity with age. Their wines appeal to both enthusiasts and connoisseurs, perhaps more so than Vintage Ports from any other house, because they result from inspired production and a deep understanding of viticulture and terroir.
