Pacheca Tawny 50 Years Old

“This wine is the result of the careful work of several generations who, with mastery, have been blending Port wines over many years. It is a wine of unparalleled quality, full of history that thrills us with every swallow.” Maria Serpa Pimentel

Grape Varieties: Traditional red grape varieties of the Douro region originally from Old Vineyards.

Description: 50 Years Old Tawny Port is an exceptional wine resulting from a blend of Ports that have aged in 550 litre casks over many years in the fresh warehouse of Quinta da Pacheca. During aging, the wine transforms its red colour into various shades of amber, brownish, with greenish hints when the wine is very old. The sugar concentration increases and the acidity due to esterification phenomena and also gives origin to an acidity that we call vinagrinho.

Tasting Notes: This wine presents itself with an intense aroma of nuts, chocolate, spices, toffee and caramel. In the mouth there is a very fresh complexity, toffee, caramel, dried fruits with the persistence that only a very old wine achieves.

Serving Suggestions: Should be drunk slightly chilled, at the end of the meal, accompanying desserts. Should be served at 16ºC.

Winemakers: Maria de Serpa Pimentel and João Silva e Sousa
