The Story
A magnificent single-harvest tawny from the historic 1975 vintage, crafted by the world's oldest Port house. Pouring an appealing amber hue, it opens with a rich, highly fragrant bouquet of dried fruits, figs, and raisins layered with elegant warm spices. The smooth, silky palate reveals remarkable body and structure, balancing intense walnut and toffee flavors with a crisp line of acidity that extends into a lingering, sophisticated finish.
Food Pairing: Complements desserts made with caramel and spices beautifully, such as crème brûlée, traditional tarte tatin, or a selection of artisanal, medium-strength cheeses.
