Product Notes

Quinta do Infantado 10 Year Old Tawny Port wine is a delectable treat that hails from the lush vineyards of Portugal. This wine boasts a beautiful garnet colour nuanced with auburn highlights. It enchants the palate with delicate notes of dried fruits, hazelnut, and almonds, complimented by undertones of vanilla, caramel, and honey. Time spent aging in old oak casks lends a rich maturity, creating a medium body wine with a pleasantly sweet, lingering finish. The Quinta do Infantado is an assortment of nuanced flavours, making it an enjoyable indulgence well-suited to after-dinner conversations or cheese pairings.

Tasting Notes

Light tawny in colour, this port has intense aromas of dried fruits with hints of citrus fruits. Medium weight in the mouth, it is elegant and long on the finish.
