2023 vintage. Decent Douro red blend with Touriga Nacional. Plum in color, fruit forward on the nose and palette, cherry and blackberry with good acidity; slight chew but a decent finish. Pairing with spicy chicken, rice, and asparagus. — 24 days ago
Wow! Rich and deep. Much better than the 10 and better than the 20. A lot more flavor on the back of the tongue and it lasts longer! Big finish! — 4 years ago

Storng alcohol burn, typical porto aroma married to nutty and black fruit smells. Very caramel-y and raisin-y with medium body and a long surprisingly toasty finish. Like toasted rice crispies. First 10 yr old port I've had and I like it. Pairs well with fudge with peanut putter — 9 years ago

While the nose is of prototypical tawny port with raisin, caramel, fig, cocoa, and sandalwood, the palate has a fruitier profile with subtle cherry flavor. Full and rich but not cloying - it’s actually on the drier end of the taste spectrum for a tawny.

A highlight of the port tastings - 1976 vintage port. Beautiful. Carvalhas is a stunning visitors experience. Recommend anyone who visits Douro sees their property. — 6 days ago
