Porto Tawny 75cl - Fonseca is an elegant example of fortified wine from the renowned Douro region in Portugal, famous for the production of high-quality fortified wines.
Made mainly with typical native grape varieties such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Roriz, this Porto is characterized by prolonged aging in wooden barrels that gives the drink an intense mature character. The aging process in wood imparts to Porto Tawny a complex aromatic range, made up of notes of dried fruit, caramel, honey, and sweet spices, accompanied by a pleasant softness on the palate and a surprising freshness despite its sweetness.
With a warm amber color, it is ideal as a meditative wine or to accompany desserts based on chocolate, dried fruit tarts, or aged cheeses. Thanks to its characteristics, Porto Tawny 75cl - Fonseca represents a perfect synthesis of tradition and refinement, capable of evoking the history and the unique terroir of the Douro valley in every sip.
