The Perfect Gift
Taylor Fladgate 10 Year Old Tawny

Port is a masterpiece, and Tawny port
is my absolute favourite. Called Tawny
because of its colour, Port is made with
many indigenous grapes from the beautiful Douro Valley in Portugal. The grapes
grow on very steep hills and are handpicked. It is fortified and blended with
wine that is at minimum 10 years old
and aged in oak casks. After years of age,
the wine finally reaches a mature tawny
colour. The final taste is smooth with
mellow and complex flavours. It pairs well
with blue cheese and is a perfect after dinner delight. A bottle from Taylor Fladgate,
one of the most respected producers of
Port, is the absolute perfect gift. It will
leave a lasting impression on your next
evening with family and friends.
