(1 customer review)

$42.99

This superior Grand Tawny Port displays a nose of raisins, dried pears, grilled nuts and spicy, dusty oak and is a rich garnet colour in the glass. The palate has balanced sweetness complemented by a good level of fresh acidity.

The result is a wine that has pronounced aged character but maintains freshness and a long dry finish, avoiding any cloying character. This award winning port makes the perfect gift to you.

    I first tried this a couple of years ago, when my son bought me a bottle through ‘Duty Free’. Aussies do make the best Port (according to my wife) and I have to agree. Lovely, smooth and warming on a cold winter evening, or as a nightcap when you can’t sleep. Have tried quite a few Ports and this one is hard to be beaten.
