Quinta Do Estanho 10 Anos Porto Tawny Porto

Description

This Douro Tawny, a well-deserved “Grande Escolha”, feels as though it’s sprung straight from a fairytale – or perhaps a particularly well-stocked cellar. The nose is a veritable explosion of spices, with clove taking centre stage, but complemented by notes of hazelnut, toasted almond and dark coffee, echoing the sweetness of molasses. On the palate, it’s undeniably intense, with a persistence that defies gravity, and a complexity so profound that paired with a good sheep’s cheese, it’s an experience begging to be revisited.
