Vista Alegre Reserve Tawny Port

A reserve tawny port from the Vallegre house, produced from selected casks of old port wines aged for 8-10 years in oak casks. The grapes come from Quinta Vista Alegre in the Douro Valley near Pinhão, where the vineyards cover about 55 hectares and include Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Roriz and Tinto Cão, with some vines close to 100 years old. Traditional foot-treading in lagares is still used for the best qualities. It is a fine, intense and juicy port wine, suited to sweet desserts, nuts and cheese. It should be served at 10-15°C.
