This 10-year Tawny is the sweet spot in the Porto aging spectrum – old enough to have developed beautiful complexity but young enough to retain vibrant fruit character. The decade of barrel aging gives it that characteristic amber color and nutty profile that makes Tawny Porto so beloved. Bartholomew Broadbent, the founder of the company, comes from serious wine royalty – his father Michael Broadbent was one of the world's most respected wine authorities. This family connection to the fine wine world ensures their Porto selections meet exacting standards. This 10-year Tawny makes a perfect end to a special meal or a wonderful companion to a good book and a comfortable chair. Unlike Vintage Port, once opened, it will stay fresh for weeks – though it rarely lasts that long!

Cocchi Americano Bianco is a historic aromatized aperitif wine produced in Asti since 1891. Made from a Moscato base wine infused with herbs, spices, and cinchona bark (which provides quinine), it's known for its bittersweet complexity.

Cocchi Vermouth di Torino 'Storico' is an authentic sweet vermouth produced in Turin, Piedmont following a historical recipe from 1891.

Emilio Lustau's 'Capataz Andres' Sol is a premium cream sherry from Jerez, combining oxidative aging with sweetness from Pedro Ximénez. This complex fortified wine is aged in the solera system, offering a perfect balance between rich sweetness and refreshing acidity.

If wines were people, Madeira would be that fascinating elder who has survived everything life has thrown their way and emerged stronger for it. This 10-year-old Sercial from the renowned Henriques & Henriques (H&H) is the driest style of Madeira, making it the perfect introduction to this unique fortified wine category. Madeira's production process is fascinatingly backwards – the wine is intentionally heated and oxidized, practices that would ruin most wines but transform Madeira into something magical and virtually indestructible. This bottle has been aged for a decade, developing remarkable complexity while maintaining a freshness that seems to defy logic. Once opened, it will last for months (even years) without deteriorating – though good luck keeping it around that long. Sip it as an aperitif, pair it with a cheese course, or enjoy it as a contemplative nightcap – this is a wine that demands attention but rewards it generously.
