About this lot
Quinta da Devesa 50 Years Old Tawny Port – Matured in Oak An exceptional aged Tawny Port from Quinta da Devesa, one of the historic estates of Portugal’s Douro Valley. Produced from traditional Douro grape varieties, this remarkable Port represents a blend with an indicated age of 50 years, matured naturally for decades in wooden vessels in Quinta da Devesa’s cellars. Extended oxidative ageing has transformed the wine, developing extraordinary aromatic concentration while retaining the freshness characteristic of the estate’s finest old Tawnies. Deep reddish-brown with greenish reflections, it displays an exceptionally complex bouquet of cedar, cigar box, ginger, spice, caramelised fruit and dried apricot. The palate is smooth and concentrated yet fresh, leading into a remarkably persistent finish. Portugal | Douro | 50-Year-Old Tawny Port | 750ml | 20% ABV | Matured in Oak | Original Presentation Box
