Tasting Notes
OFFLEY 30 YEARS OLD TAWNY is a remarkable wine, amber in colour with appealing greenish hints. Its bouquet is very intense and
has great complexity, with notes of caramel, moka, varnish, nuts and tobacco leaf, harmoniously fine-tuned along years of careful evolution in oak wood. In the mouth, it is a very well-balanced and unctuous wine that shows a delicate structure and a sublime finish. An exceptional wine, it is produced in only limited quantities and stands out as the ultimate symbol of Offley Old Tawnies.
Serving Suggestions

Varieties

Winemaking

and crushing before fermentation, under controlled temperature, with skin maceration so as to extract the best components. The addition of wine alcohol at the ideal moment sets the balance between the wine's body and bouquet. This moment is chosen by the winemaker following strict control of fermentation temperatures and densities, the later depending on the vine variety, maturation stage and the final sweetness required.
Ageing
After the harvest, the wines remain in the Douro until the following spring, when they are taken to Vila Nova de Gaia and enter Offley's centuries-old lodges for ageing in oak wood casks, as required by Porto wine traditional ageing system. Along the years, the exceptional wines selected for this OFFLEY 30 YEARS OLD TAWNY are carefully tasted and analysed, racked from lees and all corrections deemed necessary by the tasters are carried out. The final blend results from the strictest selection of wines usually between 25 and 40 years of age, masterfully and skilfully combined so as to achieve OFFLEY 30 YEARS OLD TAWNY'S unique identity, style and consistency.
