Winemaking:
Sandeman Porto Tawny is produced by the traditional Porto Wine method. The hand-picked grapes undergo stalk-removal and crushing before fermentation, under controlled temperature, with skin maceration so as to extract the best components. The addition of wine alcohol at the ideal moment sets the balance between the wine´s body and bouquet. This moment is chosen by the winemaker following strict control of fermentation temperatures and densities, the later depending on the vine variety, maturation stage and the final sweetness required. After the harvest, the wines remain in the Douro until the following Spring, when they are taken to V.N.Gaia and enter Sandman's centuries-old lodges for ageing in oak wood casks, as required by Porto Wine traditional ageing system. Throughout the years the wines are carefully tasted and analysed by the oenology team who also makes all necessary corrections and prepares the final blend so as to keep Sandeman Porto Tawny´s style and character. The final blend is filtered and cold-stabilised prior to bottling.

16,5 points - Sandeman Tawny Port

Dark in color, aroma a slight vinagrinho, fruit in syrup, not very complex. More impressive in his mouth, beautiful texture and balance, with a resinous, dry style. Bottled in 2010.

84 points - Sandeman Tawny Port

Light, fresh, with some caramel and dried fruit flavors. This is a lightweight tawny, going more for freshness, with touches of raisins to finish.
