40 years old Tawny NV Fonseca

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (95)

Fonseca’s 40-Year Old Tawny has a similar aromatic profile to the 20-Year Old, but with markedly more intensity and complemented by dried honey and dried flower notes. The palate has a wonderful viscous entry with generous honeyed fruit infused with allspice, orange rind, marjoram and cloves. The finish has a sense of completeness and superb weight. This gorgeous tawny cannot fail to satisfy even the most demanding palate.

Winespectator (91)

Lush and powerful, with lots of hazelnut, smoke and cream notes to the dried cherry and berry flavors. White chocolate and spice lingers on the long, rich finish, with hints of citrus zest.?
