Churchill’s 30 Year Tawny Port is an expression of Douro terroir, combined with delicate ageing in seasoned oak casks. The result of this combination is a port full of finesse that retains Churchill’s characteristic fresh identity.
The grapes come from the old vineyards at our estates located in the Cima Corgo sub-region of the Douro Wine region.
A field blend of many varieties such as Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, Tinto Cão, Tinta Barroca, Touriga Franca and Tinta Francisca.
Vinification: The grapes are hand-picked into small boxes and then processed into ancient granite lagares, where they are pressed by foot during fermentation. After fermentation, the wine goes through an ageing period in seasoned oak vats and casks for the remaining 30 years.
Bright, amber/copper colour. On the nose, a complex and seductive combination of aromas of cigar box, toffee and cedar wood with hints of fresh, black fruits. Very elegant and enveloping on the palate, combining freshness with ageing, showing notes of dried fruits and orange peel along with floral and menthol undertones, ending in a long and velvety finish.
