Warre's, 10 year Tawny Port "Otima" Porto, Portugal

The Symington family has been custodians of Warre's for over 350 years through 13 generations, with a dedication unique to family-run businesses. Their unparalleled tradition in the Port trade brings deep expertise to every bottle of Warre's Port produced. Otima is a contemporary expression of aged 10-year Tawny especially suitable for those preferring a lighter style, challenging traditional perceptions of Port as merely a dark, after-dinner drink with its delicate yet premium quality that reflects today's versatile lifestyle.

Tasting Notes

Medium ruby/amber/garnet color with loads of kirsch and cedar intermixed with brown sugar in the nose, rich full-bodied flavors with burgeoning complexity and big aromatics. The palate displays golden raisins, fig newton centers, dried fruits, nutty butterscotch and caramelized sugar. The finish is seamless and long with enough acidity to remain fresh, preventing a cloying finale. Rich tawny color with excellent nose of nuts and hints of mature fruit; on the palate light and delicate, beautifully rounded with hints of dried fruits and a long elegant finish.

Pairs With

walnuts, dried fruit, favorite cheeses, nuts after a meal
