Rozés Tawny 40 Year Old
Deep brown colour with a deliciously nutty nose. This was still quite sweet, rich an nutty having a long and complex after taste.
This tasting was a memorable occasion in a restaurant in Vila do Conde. My wife spotted the unopened bottle in its smart wooden box on the shelves behind the counter. She expressed so much interest that the owner opened it up and gave her a little taste. This made my sister and I very jealous so we asked how much a glass was. At €9 a glass we couldn't refuse. The next thing we knew practically every one in the restaurant had bought a glass too and the bottle was almost empty. Which just goes to show what a lovely port it was!
The restaurant is still there. It is the Adiga Gavina (Tripadvisor Reviews) and I can recommend it for the excellent charcoal grilled fish cooked outside and the sauce they provide for your boiled potatoes.
