Quevedo

COLOUR

Amber with green hints

AROMA

A complex and intense expression with notes of citrus marmalade, dry fruits, nutmeg, marzipan and almond essence.

PALATE

Sharp entrance due to the high acidity built through all the years of evaporation in the casks. Quickly the Port becomes very smooth, balanced by its sweetness and the appereance of the dry fruits, grilled nuts and caramel flavors. From the midpalate, it evolves to cloves, ground coffee, and bitter almonds. The many layers of flavours build towards an explosive finish, taken over by the citrus, cinnamon and ginger notes that linger persistently.
