Buy this wine because Tawny is the most delicate of Port styles. It is allowed to oxidise slightly as it matures in large oak vessels, giving the wine its slightly russet, tawny colour and adding a subtle, delicious complexity. This Reserve Tawny retains incredibly pure and vibrant red fruit flavours with a beautiful nutty undertone.
It pairs great with mature and hard cheese, blue cheese such as Strathdon Blue, cured meats
