Cockburn’s 20yr Tawny Port – 500ml
Twenty Year Old tawnies are made from wines of the very highest quality, blended
and subsequently aged in oak cask for an average of twenty years, until they strike
the correct balance between the delicacy and elegance that come from prolonged
cask-ageing, and the rich fruit character that lends these old tawnies their structure,
freshness and longevity. Cockburn’s 20 Year Old Tawny is pale, complex and
delicate with hints of cedar and crystallised fruits.
Cockburn’s 20 Year Old Tawny has a lovely
bright amber tawny color. On the nose with
an amazingly delicate and complex bouquet of
fruitcake, honey and nuts combined with notes
of orange peel. On the palate smooth and
polished, wonderfully balanced, with rich and
warm nutty flavors leading to a long and
lingering finish.
Cockburn’s 20 Year Old pairs extremely well
with nuts, dried fruits and fruitcake, but is also
delicious with vanilla ice cream or crème
brûlée. Serve lightly chilled to enjoy at its
finest.
