Quinta de La Rosa Tawny 30 Anos

Description: Released in 2018 to commemorate the thirty-year anniversary of La Rosa’s relaunch by father and daughter, Tim and Sophia Bergqvist (father and daughter), the 30 Year Old Tawny is an extraordinary wine that is the perfect accompaniment for any special occastion.

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

Tasting Note: As with all of our ports the 30 Year Old Tawny is fermented slightly longer to guarantee a dry finish and we work hard to ensure that the brandy is well incorporated. Increased aging in old 550l oak pipes has given this magnificent wine enormous elegance and complexity. The beautiful amber colour is befitting of its age. Delicate dried fruit aromas combine with hints of balsamic, coffee and bitter orange. Delicious and intense on the palate, it is incredibly luscious with great length and complexity.

Winemaking: Each year carefully selected grapes to be foot trodden in granite lagares and a small number the resulting wines are set aside to be aged in old 550l oak pipes for an average of 30 years before being blended and bottled.

Pairing: Foie Gras and Tarte Tatin.

Winemaker: Jorge Moreira
