Van Zellers 20 Years Old Tawny Porto (750ml) *

Tawny Port earns its color and its nuttiness through long aging in wood, and the twenty-year designation from Van Zellers points to a blend built for that slow oxidative maturity rather than the fruit-forward power of a Vintage bottling. This is fortified wine from Portugal's Douro Valley, where indigenous grapes are pressed, fortified with grape spirit to arrest fermentation and preserve sweetness, then left to develop in cask over decades. Expect the amber tones, dried-fruit depth, and gentle warmth that define aged Tawny, a style meant to be poured in small measures and lingered over.
