The Silva Reis 10 year old Tawny, is blended from the Company’s finest selection of old cask aged Ports that show the ideal character of 10 years.
During its ageing process, its young characteristics of fruit aromas and flavours begin to dissapear and are replaced by subtile, mellow notes where it is possible to predict reminiscences of spice, nuts, licorice, vanilla and fruit jam.
At this time, the experience and knowledge of Real Companhia Velha’s Master Port Blender is essential to predict future developments in these wines and anticipate the touch each Port will bring to the 10 years blend. The aromas and falvours of these wines are in the hands of the Master Port Blender, who seeks to create a yet another fine representative of the Silva Reis Ports.
A very fine Port of Tawny colour with shades of gold, showing off a magnificent bouquet of mature fruit and spice and a harmoniously mellow structure. Its ageing is evident, yet shows itself lively and very complex, recognition of its ageing in oak.
