2013 Fonseca Guimaraens Vintage Port

The Fonseca Guimaraens Vintage 2013 displays a deep, intense colour with magenta highlights, hinting at a wine of great concentration. On the nose, it stands out for its opulent expression of ripe wild berries, rich and succulent, alongside notes of apricot, cedar, smoke and dark chocolate, with subtle floral and herbal nuances that add complexity and elegance. On the palate, it reveals great volume and intensity, with firm, well-structured tannins that envelop the mouth, leading to a long, powerful and persistent finish. A seductive and expressive Vintage Port, enjoyable at a relatively early stage, yet with excellent potential for long-term ageing in bottle.

Fonseca has been part of the first category of Vintage Port wine producers since the mid-19th century. Fonseca Vintage Port wines are known for their lush fruitiness which develops great opulence and complexity with age. Their wines appeal to the enthusiast and connoisseur, perhaps more than the Vintage Ports of any other house because they are the result of inspired production and deep knowledge of viticulture and terroir.
