Critical Acclaim
SP90Wine Spectator Jun 30, 2012
"Refined, with bright flavors of dried berry, plum compote and cherry tart that are long and lush. Very creamy on the finish, which features chocolate mousse. Drink now. 6,000 cases imported." (90 pts.)
WE90Wine Enthusiast 6/1/2012
"In the full Fonseca style, this aged tawny shows both rich fruit and a more serious wood-aged character. Good acidity follows the sweet initial taste, broadening into ripe flavors of nut, plum jelly, and a final crisp acidity." (90 pts.)
SP90Wine Spectator Web only – 2018
"Shows a slightly darker and richer profile than most of its peers, with fig, plum cake, dark licorice and toasted black sesame notes rolling through. Slightly gutsy, offering a brambly edged finish. A muscular tawny. Drink now. 3,000 cases made." (90 pts.)
Located in northwest Portugal, The Douro region follows the path of the Douro river. It's home to Portugal's most prized export, port wines, as well as a blossoming selection of world-class table wines. Typical red grapes used in Douro are Touriga Nacional (which produces tannic, dark red wines) and Tempranillo (under the name Tinta Roriz). The steep slopes of the Douro River Valley make it difficult to farm, but the resulting wines are worth all the effort.
Portugal is most famous (and justifiably so) for its Port wines, fortified wines that are typically sweet and often served with dessert. Port wines come in many styles such as Tawny, Late Bottled Vintage, etc, and are classified by how they were produced.
Besides Port, however, Portugal is also one of the fastest-rising wine countries in the world (as far as quality and production) when it comes to table wines. You'll find some unbelievable values in Portuguese table wines, with grapes like Touriga Nacional at the forefront.
SP9090 pts. - Wine Spectator - Sep 15, 2003 Well-aged, with almond, fruitcake and caramel aromas and flavors. Full-bodied, sweet and lively, with orange peel, nuts and dried fruits on the finish. Excellent. This is the best tawny I have ever had from here. Drink now. 7,500 cases madeWE9090 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 8/1/2006 While it is quite dark in color, this wine still has plenty of good, 10-Year Old fresh fruit flavors. Perfumed and delicate, it has light sweetness and a good layer of fruit and wood acidity, leaving a dry aftertaste. Its quality is an indication of the impressive improvements that have occurred at Royal Oporto in recent years.
SP9292 pts. - Wine Spectator - Web only – 2018 Solid, with hazelnut, fig, plum cake and dried cherry notes in lockstep from start to finish. A streak of hazelnut husk tilts to the drier side of the tawny spectrum, resulting in mouthwatering cut on the finish. Drink now. 12,000 cases made.WS8888 pts. - Wine & Spirits - October 1, 2004 The light ruby cast to the color indicates the fruit that’s still apparent in this wine. Sweet and silky, its date flavors integrate well with the alcohol. This is a quiet, shimmering ten-year-old for flan.
