Fonseca 10-year Tawny Port

[wondersofwine]

After dinner drink at Savoy in Asheville.
(The Savoy had a very good dessert wine list including Graham 20-year Port, a late-bottled vintage Port, a Jackson Trigg ice wine, Bonny Doon Vin de Glacier, Vin Santo and a Mer Soleil Late (no indication of grape variety but server thought it was Muscat.) Essencia Orange Muscat also on the list.

The Fonseca Tawny Port was topaz or amber in color in dim restaurant lighting. It seemed warming without alcoholic heat. Subtle nuts, blending with prunes and orange toffee. Server brought out a chocolate truffle and a shortbread bite with the Port.
