Burmester 10 Years Old Tawny Port 6 x 0.75L
6 Bottles
Port Wine

DESCRIPTION
Burmester has been renowned for its Port wines and DOC Douro wines for a long time. It all started in London in 1750, when Henry Burmester joined John Nash to establish the company Burmester, Nash & Co. They began exporting Port wine from Vila Nova de Gaia to Europe.
The company passed from one generation to another until 1834, when Johann Wilhelm Burmester (J. W. B.), a direct descendant of the founder Henry Burmester, arrived in Porto, oblivious to the fact that he would begin a famous new family dynasty. His great decisions showed character and courage. Having started as a clerk in an indebted company, he became its manager and then bought it outright with all its rights and responsibilities.
Sadly, in 1885 J. W. Burmester was overcome by a wave when he was watching the turbulent tide in the Cadouços beach, in Foz do Douro. His children took over the business.
After all political and economic instabilities, J.W. Burmester persists and in 1992 begins the production of DOC Douro Wine and was quickly well accepted by the market.
Through its long years of existence, Burmester went from one success to the other, proving its character and determination. Henry Burmester and John Nash forged the brand’s path, J. W. Burmester and his descendants solidified its character and purpose.
Today, the brand is committed to provide experiences with character in every moment of life – personal and professional. Character is the universal principle of the brand and of its wines. It is a commitment which inspires and motivates Burmester through its personality.

WINE VARIETIES: Traditional from Douro Region.

VINIFICATION
Hand-picked at the optimum time, the grapes are then destemmed, crushed and converted into wine through a process of careful maceration to extract their colour, tannins and aromas, enhanced by constant churning during fermentation. This takes place in vats (lagares) at a controlled temperature (between 28-30°C) until the right degree of sweetness (baumé) is achieved. At this point, grape brandy is added to create the final fortified wine. A wine of high quality, made by blending wines of different harvests to achieve the array of sensory qualities that are typical of these aged tawny Port wines. These wines have each matured in oak casks for varied periods of time, with the average age of all the wines in the blend defining the age on the label. The resulting blend expresses the characteristics given by the ageing in wood.

TASTING NOTES
An intense golden colour, with an amber rim. Complex on the nose, with prevailing aromas of dried fruit, almond and hazelnut combined with notes of honey and vanilla. A refined palate, with great smoothness, elegance and intensity. A round, full-bodied wine that develops into a rich and intensely fresh finish.

SERVING
Served slightly chilled it is the ideal choice for starters such as strong cheeses and pâté. Its velvety texture and unique aromas go remarkably well with main dishes that include dried fruit. Irresistible with a starter of foie gras with aubergine and walnuts. A great choice for an endless array of desserts, such as toffee brownies, chocolate and pistachio pavé, or crostini of walnuts with Chèvre. The wine should be stored in a cool and dry place, sheltered from light and temperature fluctuations, and the bottle should remain in an upright position. Over time, it is natural that sediment will form at the bottom of a bottle of Port wine. Once opened, it should be drunk within 2 to 5 months. Best served at a temperature between 14 and 16°C.
