✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Osborne, a historic house founded in 1772, brings its centuries of aging expertise to the Douro Valley with this exceptional 20-Year-Old Tawny Port. Sourced from the steep, schistous slopes of the Douro, this wine is crafted from traditional grape varieties such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Roriz. The wine undergoes a slow, oxidative maturation in seasoned oak casks within the lodge of Vila Nova de Gaia. Over two decades, the wood contact transforms the wine's youthful purple hues into a warm, translucent amber. This patient process coaxes out complex, tertiary aromas of dried apricots, toasted hazelnuts, butterscotch, and exotic spices, resulting in a velvety texture and a remarkably long, nutty finish that pays homage to Portugal's grand fortified winemaking tradition.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Osborne blev grundlagt i 1772 i El Puerto de Santa María af den engelske købmand Thomas Osborne Mann og er i dag et af Spaniens ældste og mest velansete vin- og spiritushuse. Gennem mere end to et halvt århundrede i familiens eje har huset opbygget et enestående renommé med rødder i den traditionelle solera-lagring i Andalusiens historiske Sherry-trekant – suppleret af enestående portvine fra Dourodalen. Osborne, der på verdensplan er kendt for sin ikoniske silhuet af den sorte tyr, nyder stor anerkendelse for sit kompromisløse kvalitetsniveau på tværs af en alsidig portefølje, anført af prestigefyldte VORS Pedro Ximénez, komplekse Oloroso-sherrier, Tawny Ports og fadlagrede Brandies de Jerez i verdensklasse.
