Ferreira Dona Antonia 30 Year Old Tawny Port Overview

Ferreira Dona Antonia 30 Year Old Tawny Port In Wooden Box

A distinguished aged Tawny Port from Ferreira, this 30 Year Old expression is a tribute to Dona Antonia Adelaide Ferreira, one of the most influential figures in Douro winemaking history. Matured in traditional oak casks in Vila Nova de Gaia, it is crafted from a complex blend of wines aged between 25 and 40 years, resulting in exceptional depth and harmony.

Tasting Notes:

• In the glass, this port wine gleams with a radiant golden tone, subtly kissed by hints of brick red.
• Its scent is a marvel of intricate layers, revealing assertive hints of pepper, ginger, and nutmeg entwined with balsamic echoes of wax and tobacco. Amidst these aromas, a delicate touch of aniseed weaves through the luscious notes of overripe red fruits.
• The palate is a symphony of richness, marked by lively acidity and an array of spices, complemented by a subtle whisper of jam.
• The wine’s has an exquisitely refined finish, seemingly stretching on for an eternity, leaving an indelible impression.

Food Pairing Suggestions

Here are a few serving suggestions and pairing ideas to help you get the most from this wine, whether you’re enjoying it with food or simply savouring it on its own.

Pairs beautifully with savoury dishes that highlight its spice and depth. Blue cheeses such as Stilton or Roquefort create a classic contrast, while aged Cheddar or nutty hard cheeses offer a more subtle pairing. It also works wonderfully with charcuterie, toasted walnuts, pâté or candied nuts - perfect for an elegant end to a meal or a refined cheese board. Its complexity makes it equally enjoyable when sipped slowly on its own.

For sweet pairings, this Tawny excels with desserts that echo its warm spice and dried‑fruit character. Walnut cake, fig tart, almond pastries and candied orange peel all complement its richness. Chocolate desserts with citrus or spice elements also work beautifully.
