Winemaking:
Aged patiently in the intense silence and unique atmosphere of the two hundred years lodges of the Company at Vila Nova de Gaia this fine Old Tawny Aged over 40 years is presented to the market at its best. The intervening time on the ageing process was precisely that necessary for the wine to achieve its exact point of maturation and the inimitable qualities of a wine filled with history.
Grape Varieties:
Touriga Nacional,Touriga Franca,Tinta Roriz
Tasting Notes:
Delicate but beautifully aromatic. Mellow and ripe with overtones of oranges and raisins, nutty hints of toasted almonds. Smooth, well integrated and extremely elegant, a sweetness of fruit, honey and soft spice, balancing acidity leaves the mouth very clean with long lasting flavour of great finesse. The exceptional character of this fine Old Tawny deserved also an exceptional maturation process in only the most selected oak casks, to acquire its distinctive pale medium amber colour with red brown tawny hints.
Store and Serve Advices:
Store vertically at a 15º C, constant temperature. Serve at 18ºC.

88 points - Real Companhia Velha 40 years Port
An intensely sweet wine, with mature fruit that shows some richness and orange marmalade flavors. It is spoiled by a hint of volatility, which leaves a sharp aftertaste.
95 points - Real Companhia Velha 40 years Port
Intense and unctuous, featuring an array of vibrant ripe citrus, dried fig, toffee and wild herb flavors, accented by notes of mocha and cocoa powder. Spiced cherry and cream fill in midpalate, with a bright finish of orange peel and caramel. Drink now. 250 cases made.
