Valdouro Twany

Valdouro

The Valdouro Tawny Port is a red Port wine from Portugal, made from grapes such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga Francesa and Tinta Roriz, among others. Here is a brief overview of its sensory and general characteristics:

Sensory characteristics:

• Colour: Brownish red, typical of a Tawny.
• Nose: Harmonious aroma, likely with a balance between fruit and wood notes.
• Palate: Fruity in taste, complemented by fine wood notes that come from the ageing process.

Recommendations:

• Sediment: As a natural product, this wine may develop sediment over time. It is therefore advisable to decant the wine carefully.
• Serving temperature: Enjoy at room temperature to fully appreciate its aromas.

Additional information:

• Alcohol content: 19% vol.
• Ageing potential: Strongly depends on storage conditions. A cool, dark place with constant temperatures is ideal.
• Winemaking: Intensive maceration and interruption of the fermentation process by the addition of wine alcohol, which gives the typical Port wine character with increased alcohol content and residual sweetness.
• Soil type: The wine is grown on schist soils, which can influence the minerality of the wine.

This Port wine is excellent as a digestif or paired with strong cheeses or desserts.
