Cockburn’s Fine Tawny Port 750ml

When a port is described as tawny, without an indication of age, it is a basic blend of wood-aged port that has spent time in wooden barrels, typically at least three years.

Cockburn’s Port (/ˈkoʊbɜːrnz/ KOH-burnz) is a port producer in Portugal. Cockburn’s was set up by Scotsman Robert Cockburn in 1815, who returned to Portugal after first visiting the country as a soldier fighting under Wellington in the Napoleonic Wars.

Cockburns Fine Tawny is a blend of fine young wines from various harvests that are aged in small wood barrels for 2-3 years. With a red amber colour and silky feel, this port acquires a nutty flavour from ageing.

These Ports can be served at room temperature, but Tawny Ports are best enjoyed slightly chilled (55°F to 58°F ) where as young Ruby Ports are best enjoyed slightly below room temperature (60°F to 64°F).
