Sandeman Founder's Reserve Porto NV

Capping off our Christmas dinner was this modest bottle of port.  It's smooth and clean and not too powerful.  Great pairing with our chocolate fudge type cake.  From the maker: "Selected from the finest "lots" of each vintage and aged for 5 years. Full of the power, fruit and fire that distinguishes classic Porto, Founders Reserve is the culmination of two hundred years of expertise.

Tasting Notes Intense ruby red colour, brilliant and clean. Rich red fruit aromas with a touch of age create an elegant reflection of powerful favours, the fruit and fire characteristic of young classic Porto balanced with the finesse of age.

Excellent on its own served in large glasses, Founders is a perfect match with cheeses or rich chocolate desserts.
