Amber coloured with orange and garnet tones. The delicate green highlights of the meniscus is characteristic of old cask-aged wines and illustrates the quality and advanced age of this fine port. This complex, perfectly balanced port shows rich aromas of dried fruit and vanilla. Agitate the glass and spice aromas of cinnamon and cocoa are liberated. In the mouth, the attack is fresh, fine and delicate. Ripe, dried fruit softly emerges with almond and hazelnut, culminating in vanilla flavours which linger gracefully on the palate. Appreciate this elegant Port at the close of a fine meal with good friends.It should be served at 15º- 19ºC.
Background: Several battles were won with other types of tawny, but ultimate victory came within sight with the 20 years Port and the war was finally won with the 30 years. Harmonising these old wines, which are full of personality and character, is not an easy task. In the tasting room, decisions are very difficult. Here nature gives place to knowledge, to a serene and wise wine, which, like a kind old man, tells grandiose stories to the young. Earthly passions give way to volatile, esterified, wood-scented ambiences, free from the schist, from the redness. It is a dive into an ethereal, limpid world, performed at the unique and constant rhythm of a Port Wine Cellar. Because its flavours are so intense, it should be enjoyed at the end of the meal, with a coffee and a good cigar. Presented in a cream and gold Ramos Pinto 30 Year Old branded box. |
