Product Information
Hand-picked at the optimum time, the grapes are then destemmed, crushed and converted
into wine through a process of careful maceration to extract their colour, tannins and aromas,
enhanced by constant churning during fermentation. This takes place in vats (lagares) at a
controlled temperature (between 28-30°C) until the right degree of sweetness (baumé) is
achieved. At this point, grape brandy is added to create the final fortified wine. A wine of high
quality, made by blending wines of different harvests to achieve the array of sensory qualities
that are typical of these aged tawny Port wines. These wines have each matured in oak casks
for varied periods of time, with the average age of all the wines in the blend defining the age
on the label. The resulting blend expresses the characteristics given by the ageing in wood. Time well spent in barrel.
Please drink responsibly: The UK Chief Medical Officers recommend adults do not regularly drink more than 14 units per week

Storage
The wine should be stored in a cool and dry place, sheltered from light and temperature fluctuations, and the bottle should remain in an upright position. Over time, it is natural that sediment will form at the bottom of a bottle of Port wine. Once opened, it should be drunk within 4 to 6 months.
Preparation and Usage
Serve chilled. Irresistible with a starter of foie gras with aubergine and walnuts. A great choice for an endless array of desserts, such as toffee brownies, chocolate and pistachio pavé, or crostini of walnuts with chèvre.
Best served at a temperature between 12 and 14°C.
