Winemaking:
Harvested by hand at their optimum point, the grapes are destemmed, crushed and vinified according to a process based on careful maceration with extraction of colour, tannins and aromas from the films, complemented by permanent reassembly during fermentation. This takes place in mills, at a controlled temperature between 28-30ºC, until reaching the desired Baume degree. In this phase, the wine brandy (benefit) is added, giving rise to a fortified wine. High quality wine, obtained by blending wines from harvests of several years, in order to acquire a complement of organoleptic characteristics typical of this old tawny style. Cálem 20 Anos Tawny is a wine that reflects the art of the blend, and results from the careful combination of wines aged in oak casks, with an average age of 20 years.
Grape Varieties:
Touriga Nacional,Tinta Roriz,Touriga Franca,Tinta Barroca
Tasting Notes:
Brown colour, with greenish reflections. Concentrated, voluptuous nose, where woody aromas, honey notes and delicate nuances of spices predominate. On the palate it is beautifully structured, with firm and polished tannins. Soft, sweet texture, with excellent persistence and a very spicy finish.
Store and Serve Advices:
Store horizontally at a ± 15º C, constant temperature. Best served at 15 - 18ºC.
Food Pairing:
Slightly refreshed, it is the ideal choice to serve with starters composed of strong cheeses and pates. The velvety texture and the unique aromatic expression stand out remarkably with main dishes that include dried fruits. Irresistible with a terrine of foie gras with aubergine and walnuts.
Allergens:
Contains sulphites.
