Quinta de La Rosa Tawny 10 Anos Tonel 12 500ML

Description: A family favourite - named after the famous ‘Tonel 12’ barrel in which the family used to keep their aged tawnies

Grape Varieties: Traditional Port varieties, mainly Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Sousão, and Tinta Roriz.

Tasting Note: As with all of our ports the 10 Year Old Tawny is fermented slightly longer to guarantee a dry finish and we work hard to ensure that the brandy is well incorporated. Expect notes of powerful dried fruit, including apricot and figs, along with honey, almonds and orange peel.

Winemaking: Named after the large barrel in which the Bergqvist family used to keep their family blend, Tonel 12 is steeped in history. Each year a small number of top-quality wines are specially chosen and set aside to be aged in old 550l oak pipes for an average of 10 years before being
blended and bottled.

Pairing: Smooth and full of flavors, it is a versatile Port that served chilled is a great aperitif and also an excellent dessert wine. Lovely served chilled on its own, a summer port. Mince pies at Christmas.

Winemaker: Jorge Moreira
