The 30 Years Tawny Port by Feuerheerd is also available in an attractive decanter with a decorative wooden frame. The grape variety mix consists of Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinta Barroca, Tinto Cão and other red wine varieties from the Douro Valley. This tawny, matured 30 years before bottling in traditional port wine pipes (small old wooden barrels), is not only very delicate, but of course also a wonderful gift for wine and port wine fans. Or is a 30th anniversary coming up? Perfect for this!
It is relatively dark for a tawny, with a subtle ripe tone and some degree of oxidation typical of this type of port. Aromatically it is reminiscent of dark chocolate, fruit bread, dried plums, balsamic notes and black pepper. On the palate it is beautifully concentrated and perfectly balanced right up to the impressively long finale. It's just a touch denser and more complex than its 20-year-old counterpart.
He is an excellent soloist, but is also at his best as a companion to food. Try this port in combination with sweet desserts, nuts, cakes or blue cheese, classic wines a stilton.
