Since its foundation in 1822, the Fonseca brand has been synonymous with excellent port and has established itself as a byword for exceptional quality. With more than two centuries of experience, Fonseca combines traditional winemaking craftsmanship with a spirit of innovation and a deep understanding of port production. Production takes place in the renowned vineyards of Portugal’s Douro Valley, which is regarded as one of the oldest and most prestigious wine-growing regions in the world. The unique terroir is characterised by steep slopes and mineral-rich soils, which shape the flavour of the port wines.

Fonseca Porto Tawny Port is aged for a period of three years in small oak casks with a capacity of around 630 litres. During ageing, the port develops its characteristic colour – from a deep ruby red to a warm, golden-brown hue.

The barrel ageing lends it a smooth, balanced structure and emphasises its mild, well-rounded character.
