Fonseca Vintage 2009 Port
Ageing Period:
Aged for 24 months in oak casks and then in bottles for several years.
This is a wine that is more appreciated 10 to 15 years after the harvest.
Winemaking Process:
Produced only with grapes from Fonseca’s farms – Quinta de Santo António, Quinta do Cruzeiro and Quinta do Panascal from a single harvest in a particular year.
The grapes are trodden by foot in stone wine mills.
Tasting Notes:
This Port has an impenetrable black colour and Fonseca’s classic nose, dominated by luscious and pleasant fruitness, a dense, dark and powerful scent of blackberries and blackcurrants, which slowly release a heady mix of spicy and herbal aromas, seductive coffee and cocoa notes, prune hints and wild scents of gum cistus.
The thick and velvety tannins give the wine a voluptuous density, which easily integrates with a blackberry jam sumptuous infusion, dark chocolate and liquorice, which coats the palate.
The tannins are also present in the finish, which overflows with blackberry and currant flavours.
