Press comments
Quevedo Tawny is a wine that will appeal to all, given the balance between its youth and ageing. It has an amber colour and a nose of jammy fruit and plums, along with dried fruit notes, figs and hazelnuts. The mouth has a good balance between sweetness and acidity. Wood taste speak before a smooth finish, long and persistent. Food suggestions: foie gras, custard or a tiramisu, a pineapple. From: Cuisine A&D d'Aujourd'hui et de Demain, February 2014
