PORTUGAL
10 Year Old Tawny
The grapes are sourced from the estate Quintas and then pressed in lagares, before fortification with grape brandy, and aging in old oak vats.
Sousa’s philosophy behind their Tawny wines is a demonstration not only of rich character and light sweetness, but also the freshness and elegance that give Tawnies so much lift. This version is truly a harmony of fig and pear aromas, with light touches of wood leading into a coffee-bean finish.
