Fonseca Terra Prima Organic Reserve Port NV

A wonderfully rich, concentrated Port with great flavour and texture. It has an opulent black fruit nose which is followed through on the palate showing layers of intense berry, plum and cherry fruit flavours supported by firm, but well integrated tannins. A deliciously textured Reserve Port which is velvety, smooth, succulent and plump.

In 2002, Terra Prima Organic Reserve became a reality using grapes grown in the Douro Valley from an entire vineyard which is farmed organically and actively managed by Guimaraens and his team. The last stage in the development was to locate a specialist distiller with the ability to produce top quality organic fortifying spirit which would be approved by the Port Wine Institute. This was achieved and certification awarded by Ecocert, Portugal.

The wine benefits from being served between 16ºC to 18ºC. The particular qualities of this wine allow it to be enjoyed over an extended period of time once opened, without losing its freshness and vibrancy. Optimum drinking time after opening the bottle is two months.

Terra Prima Organic Reserve Port is very well suited for the classic port and cheese combination. It is particularly good with blue-veined and richly flavoured soft cheeses. It is also delicious with bitter chocolate.
