Quinta de la Rosa Tawny Port

by Quinta de la Rosa · Cima Corgo, Douro Valley, Portugal

Red • Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz • 19.5% ABV

Quinta de la Rosa produces this classic Tawny Port from their estate vineyards in Portugal's stunning Douro Valley – where vines cling to impossibly steep terraces and winemakers still crush grapes by foot (though probably not as often as the romantic in you might hope). This Port undergoes the traditional fortification process before aging in small oak barrels, where it slowly develops those gorgeous nutty, caramel flavors while the color gently fades to its characteristic tawny hue.

Unlike Vintage Port that needs decades to show its best, Tawny Port is ready to drink when bottled – no decanting required, no teeth staining guaranteed. It's the perfect low-maintenance nightcap that somehow manages to be both sophisticated and comforting at the same time.

Keep a bottle in the fridge after opening (yes, really) and it'll last for weeks, making it the perfect companion for those nights when you want 'just a little something sweet' without committing to a whole bottle of dessert wine.
