Description
The Offley 20 Year Old Tawny Port is an excellent choice for those who appreciate fine aged tawny ports. Its rich and complex character, balanced sweetness, and smooth finish make it a delightful option for special occasions or as a luxurious treat.
Tasting notes:
With a well-defined tawny hue with orange-like hints, its aroma is intense and complex, with notes of vanilla, cinnamon, pepper, ginger, exotic wood, cedar, plum and hazel. On the palate, its fine structure and balance between sugars and tannins stand out. The finish is delicate and lingering.
Serving & Food Pairing:
Tawny Ports are ready-to drink and do not require decanting. Best enjoyed slightly chilled at 12-13ºC they are excellent with desserts like crème brûlée, almond tart, and dark chocolate. Also pairs well with blue cheeses and can be enjoyed on its own as a digestif.
Offley Port represents an established heritage, but the contemporary, fruit-driven style of the brand is designed to bring Offley closer to both current and potential customers, defining Offley as the choice of the younger, fashion-conscious consumer. The Company was founded in 1737 by Englishman William Offley, modernised, and expanded over the years and eventually purchased by Sogrape in 1997. Wines are vinified at Sogrape's modern Douro winery, Quinta da Boavista, and matured at Offley's traditional cellars in Villa Nova de Gaia.
