Fonseca Tawny Port 750ml

Fonseca Tawny Port 750ML Fonseca Tawny spends three years ageing in small wooden casks generally holding about 630 litres As it 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 After the three years of ageing the wines are then blended together a few months before bottling for balance and harmony Fonseca tawnies are bottled for immediate drinking TASTING NOTE Tawnyred colour fading to brick on the rim  The seductive nose displays aromas of apricot and plum with mellow undertones of butterscotch and spice  On the palate the rich jammy flavours are lifted on the finish by an attractive crisp acidity
