The unique terroir is characterized by steep slopes and mineral-rich soils, which shape the taste of the port wines.
Fonseca Porto 10 Year Old Tawny Port is the result of ten years of ageing in oak barrels and combines the essence of traditional port winemaking. It is made from classic grape varieties such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga Francesa, Tinta Roriz, Tinta Barroca and Tinta Amarela, which are renowned for their quality and expressiveness.
