Description
Setúbal Roxo 20 Years Old is an exquisite dessert wine produced in Portugal on the Setúbal Peninsula, a region south of Lisbon which was recognized as a D.O.C. in 1907. This grape variety is almost extinct, existing only in a small vineyard in Azeitão. This is a purple grape variety, with an intense spicy aroma and a very concentrated and fruity palate.
This wine is a blend of 4 vintages, where the youngest wine is 23 years old and, the oldest, 80 years old. Aging takes place in used oak, since the truly important result is oxidation and not the oak aroma.
