Tasting Notes
A 20 year Old tawny port with a deep amber or mahogany colour with copper hints, indicating extended aging. It has a rich, sweet taste with a well-balanced acidity, fruity notes, nutty undertones, and delicate spice notes. The woodiness is smooth and velvety, with integrated oak flavours and a velvety texture. The finish is long and lingering, with a harmonious blend of sweetness, spice, and wood.

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.

Sandeman, a renowned wine and port house founded in 1790 by George Sandeman, is known for its high-quality ports and sherries.

Reviews

***95 Points- GOLD Medal - IWC 2024***
Brilliance of colour with notes of damson, prune, single espresso, chocolate, caramel, cinamon, clove and spice, dundee cake and a masculinity on the palate. Symphonic and harmonious, its acidity balances its sweetness wonderfully and effortlessly leading into a long rich and mouth-watering finish.

*** 93 Points - Silver Medal - Decanter 2023***

*** 92 Points - Silver Medal - IWSC 2023***
Seductive milk chocolate and rum raisin ice cream aromas. Beautiful silky palate, extremely refined with finesse with the perfect balance of sweetness and alcohol. In tiptop shape from every angle. A great example of its style and a delightful interpretation of the possibilities of this age category. Really spot-on!
