Description

This multi awarded 30-Year-Old Tawny Port from the artisan producer Quinta Da Devesa has been matured in the cool cellars of Portugal's Atlantic coast for thirty years. Developed with noble grapes used in the Douro region, this cask-aged Port reveals pronounced aromas of honey, molasses and dried fruit. On the palate it is viscous and full bodied, unctuous, with a wonderful sweetness that is harmoniously balanced by its refreshing acidity. The finish is long with layered honey, roasted hazelnut and allspice flavours.

Serving & Food Pairing:
Tawny Ports are ready-to drink and do not require decanting. Best enjoyed slightly chilled at 12-13ºC they will work wonders if pairing with treacle tart, crème brulee or nut based desserts, like hazelnut praline.

A historic vineyard, Quinta da Devesa was already included as a quality grape growing plot in the first map of the Douro Demarcated Region. The most important history of the property began in 1941 when Jose Fortunato Junior and his wife, Antonia Soares Fortunato acquired Quinta da Devesa and decided to pour their lifetime passion for port wine into the property through great investment in port and, later, dry wine production.
Over seventy years later, harvests of superior quality have been kept and stored in wooden casks in the winery cellars. These are used today to produce the famed tawny and aged white port blends alongside some exceptional colheita ports dating back to 1944.

How to store your Tawny Port:
The bottle should be kept upright and protected from direct sunlight and heat.

Reviews

The NV 30 Year Old Tawny Porto was bottled in 2017 with a bar-top cork and 114 grams of sugar. Another complex, crisp tawny, this adds power and depth to the 20 this issue, but it is mostly along the same lines. Showing exceptional length on the finish, this lingers beautifully. This is impressive on many fronts, if you appreciate complexity more than richness.

“The 30-Year Old Porto is slightly deeper in color than the 10-Year Old. The nose is complex: balsam, dried honey, linseed and creme brûlée,wood resin scents – all mercurial and ever-changing in the glass. The palate is smooth and harmonious, slightly more viscous and honeyed than the 10-Year Old, with great weight on the finish. There are heady allspice, clove and hazelnut notes here, touches of tamarind and white pepper following later. What a lovely 30-Year Old!”

Dark gold in color, rich and on the dry side, this is a very fine wine from a family-owned quinta close to Régua. The long wood aging has introduced great concentration to the dried fruits and burnt toffee flavors. Marmalade and surprising freshness give the wine a lift. It is ready to drink now.
