Quevedo Reserva Especial Porto

Description

This Quevedo Reserva Especial Tawny clearly enjoyed a relaxed phase in the barrel – that amber hue hinting at the influence of orange, a surprisingly impactful element. Notes of honey and spice, with a touch of pepper and nutmeg, certainly point to a substantial maturation, as favoured by the critics, likely around 20 years. The revealed dried fruits speak to the Douro’s key grapes – Tinta Barroca, Touriga Francesa, Aragonez and Tinto Cão – blending beautifully. A perfect match for a robust, aged cheese like Serra da Estrela, for a truly unforgettable pairing.
