About this item

As Fonseca Porto matures in cask, Tawny Port gradually loses the deep red 'ruby' colour of youth and takes on the seductive amber hue known as 'tawny'. At the same time the wine becomes progressively smoother and mellower, its aromas gaining in richness and complexity. The fruit has mellowed further in the 20 Year Old. Deep amber in color with russet highlights. Its superb bouquet is a complex marriage of ripe, mature fruit, warm spicy overtones of cinnamon and butterscotch and subtle oak nuances. TASTING NOTE: Fonseca 20 Year Old Tawny is deep amber in color with russet highlights. Its superb bouquet is a complex marriage of ripe, plummy, mature fruit, warm spicy overtones of cinnamon and butterscotch and subtle oak nuances.

Serving Suggestions It is an excellent accompaniment to many deserts. It combines well with flavors of figs, almonds and caramel. It is an excellent compliment for a crème brulée or a plate of wild strawberries. It may also be appreciated on its own, at the end of the meal, with walnuts or dried fruit, and can be served cool in the summer.
