We think

Aged Tawny Port is becoming increasingly popular and this is a great introduction. Don’t be fooled by the fact that you can get this award winning Tawny in the supermarket, this is the good stuff! Serve it slightly chilled and offer it to anybody who proclaims they “don’t like Port” and see how quickly they change their mind.

Experts say

Gold Outstanding at IWSC 2013 – “Deep, glowing tawny . Intense aromas of prune, fig, raisin and nut. Delightful floral note in the background and some vanilla at the side. Luscious in the mouth with complex, mellow, rich flavours yet underpinned by sound acidity. Great balance of all components give for fine elegance. Attractive, tangy, bright finish.”

Silver at Decanter WWA 2015 – “A rich, rosehip and caramel bouquet with notes of dried fruit, brown sugar and coffee. Full in style, the length of flavour envelops seductively. Candied oranges, cream, vanilla, honey and toffee are balanced by a bitter-sweet citrus acidity.”

Silver at IWC 2015 – “Nutty with balanced freshness, linseed and honey notes. Soft mouth-feel of fruit with molasses finish.”

“Firm and pungent. Great stuff!” – Jancis Robinson

92 Points from Jamie Goode – “Lovely warm, complex wine.”
