S. Leonardo Old Tawny 10 Anos Port (75cl)

S. Leonardo Old Tawny 10 Anos is a tawny port from Quinta do Mourão, blended from Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinta Barroca and Tinto Cão. The grapes ferment in open stone tanks before brandy halts fermentation. The port spends two to three years in large wooden casks and the remaining seven in small, old oak casks, ten years in all. On the nose there are strawberry, cherry, raspberry, morello cherry, raisin, almond, hazelnut and cinnamon. The palate is full, enveloping and delicate, with dried fruit, honey, toasted hazelnuts and almonds, and a touch of orange peel. The finish is balanced, elegant and fairly long.
