Winemaking:
This tawny is a blend with an average age of 10 years. We are entering the complex world of aged tawnies. Its body and rich flavour transport us to the place where it was created, the Quinta de Ervamoira. It is in this mystical, biblical landscape that the wine is extracted from the schist, from the silence, for our enjoyment. Made from high-quality wines of the Quinta de Ervamoira by blending harvests of different years. The new wines make it robust and fresh while the oldest wines give it complexity and lineage”. Its characteristic aroma and palate are the result of the artistry achieved by the head of our Tasting Room.
Grape Varieties:
Touriga Nacional,Touriga Franca,Tinta Roriz,Tinta Barroca
Tasting Notes:
Orange-red in colour with a touch of green. A well-rounded, generous aroma with balance and a hint of wine. Fruit aromas include orange, apricot and plum. Vanilla and old Port wine casks make up its woody aromas. This is a fruity tawny variety. In the mouth, one can still taste the fresh fruit surrounded by the ageing in wood. A good structure and perfect balance between fruit and alcohol. The attack on the palate is smooth and full-bodied. Following the initial oily feel, a fresh, soft fruitiness appears which finishes with a slightly acidic, woody note.
Store and Serve Advices:
Serve between 14º and 18º C. Store the bottle upright, in a cool, dry and dark place.
Food Pairing:
This is a very good accompaniment to a conch salad with tomato and onion and to desserts made with dried fruit and nuts, orange marmalade and eggs.
