Fonseca Guimaraens 2012 Vintage Port In Wood With Funnel 75cl

1 x 75cl bottle of Fonseca Guimaraens 2012 Vintage Port in Wood with Funnel ABOUT GUIMARAENS PORT - In certain years when there is no classic Fonseca Vintage Port, a Guimaraens Vintage Port may be made instead. When Guimaraens Vintage Ports were first released in the 1930's they were made in the same years as the classic Fonseca Vintage Ports but blended from slightly less powerful components, much like the second wines of the Bordeaux châteaux. TASTING NOTES - Very deep purple black with violet highlights. As would be expected of a Guimaraens Vintage Port, the first impression on the nose is of a powerful detonation of blackberry, cassis, strawberry and woodland fruit. These exuberant berry aromas are seasoned with notes of coffee, treacle and spice and surrounded by a fragrant balsamic aura of gumcistus and mint. ABOUT THE THE VINTAGE - A key characteristic of the entire vintage were the hot days combined with cold nights giving perfect weather conditions not only for the final ripening of the grapes, but also for the fermentation rates. This provided wonderful freshness of fruit, complexity and great structure. GIFT BOXED PORT - This vintage port is shipped in its original deluxe wooden presentation box and includes a free decanting funnel. A perfect gift for any Port lover!
