QUINTA DE LA ROSA 20 Year Old Tawny HALF LITRE (50cl) - SUS

Description

All La Rosa ports are made in the ‘house style’ namely slightly drier without any cloying sweetness that can be associated with some other ports. They also work hard making sure the brandy is well integrated. As with their wines, they search for harmony and equilibrium from their vineyards and they try to enable the grapes to express themselves in the bottle. The La Rosa style is to make well defined wines without too much extraction and tannin.
TASTING: "The beautiful golden colour is a good indication of the age of this excellent tawny port. With a great richness and aromatic complexity, notably of almond and spices, the 20 year old has a seductive texture with dry fruits and liqueur flavours. As is normal with these aged tawnies, the La Rosa twenty year old has incredible length and is an ‘aristocrat’ of ports." 95 pts James Suckling June 2018.
