On the nose this wine is fragrant with ripe-fruit bouquet. On the palate its smooth, silky in texture and has subtle oak nuances, well balanced and good grip with a long elegant, plummy finish.
Tawny Ports of age will not improve once bottled; they should be served at room temperature or barely cool at the end of a meal with nuts or not overly-sweet desserts.
Should be refrigerated after it is opened, allow to warm slightly before you serve unless you like it cooler and some people do.
Like all ports they are wonderful for cooking, maybe a reduced Port sauce over pork or grilled salmon.
