Fonseca
20 Year Old Aged Tawny Port Blend
Porto, Douro, Portugal
I'm not usually a huge fan of Port, but give me this after a nice meal. Significantly different than the 10 year. Caramel. Smokey. Honey Nut Cheerios.

Just a beautiful color of red rust. Bold and nutty nose, smells like plenty of spice on the inside. Goes down smooth, sweet, a touch of heat and good vanilla.

Had this a year+ ago, tried a new batch, noticed label color changed. A big fan of Tawny Ports, especially the 20 year blends are a Fav. Fonseca Port was founded in 1822 and successive generations of the Guimaraens family have upheld the Company’s reputation. Medium amber color with aromas of honey and pronounced nutty notes. On the palate ripe dried fruits with sweet cinnamon spice and oak emerge from the glass. Soft tannins long smooth finish ending with a sweet nutty character. Very nice.

Aug 9th, 2017Another fine effort drinking with my padre in Naples Pelican Bay Colony Shores. Great accompaniment to fine cigars. Always appreciate a fine port. 20 year tawny tasted April 2015. Cheers!
