Quinta do Vallado 30 Year Old Tawny Port i Gaverør

The NV 30 Year Old Tawny Port is an old vines field blend bottled in 2015. It comes in with 159 grams per liter of residual sugar. This is most notable initially for the rich and unctuous finish, leaning more to caramel than molasses. Then, the darker flavors come out. It is not always the biggest or the most powerful, but it adds good acidity that laces through the notable sweetness, and it becomes increasingly complex. It is seriously delicious, an important point in its favor, and that unctuous feel caresses the palate. There were just 1,000 500-milliliter bottles produced.

Shows engaging minerality to the toothsome, rich flavors of buttercream, pear tart and glazed apricot that glide deftly across the palate. Rich and luscious finish. Drink now.-K.M.

Vallado’s 30-year-old is sourced from old field-blend vines planted to more than 35 different grape varieties. A pale, delicate hue, with lifted orange peel, saffron and marmalade notes. Sings with the freshness of caramelised oranges on a mellifluous palate, with honey, dates and dried fig. Long, persistent and very elegant,...

Aromas of old wood, toffee and dried fruits. Full-bodied and very sweet with caramel, burnt butter and brown sugar. Sweet finish. Drink
