Broadbent 20 Year Old Tawny Port
The grapes are hand harvested and softly crushed after partial destemming. The wine was fermented in lagares and on the grape skins, allowing for their important flavour compounds to be extracted. This is done under temperature control so that the winemaker can keep an eye on the alcoholic fermentation to ensure that the addition of aguardiente (grape spirit) is added at just the right time. This addition of aguardiente halts the fermentation and is the key to creating Port wines sweetness. After fermentation, the wine is aged in wood. The final wine is a blend of multiple vintages of oak aged reserve wines that have been aged 15 to 30 years.
Tasting Note: Using the best, ripest deep coloured grapes enables this 20 Year Old Tawny Port to retain some hints of redness but with the distinctive tawny colour. The palate is rich, sweet, full and round.
Origin: Douro, Portugal
