All the classic Fonseca hallmarks of velvet, jammy blackcurrant fruit and the complexity that comes from a foot-trodden wine.

About This Port

Fonseca Bin No. 27 was created over a century ago for family consumption, and only released commercially in 1972. It is produced primarily from wines from Fonseca's own quintas in the Cima Corgo, and thus shows an exceptional quality and consistency from year to year. Blended from reserve wines selected for their intense fruit character and depth of color, Fonseca Bin No. 27 spends four years in large wood vats prior to bottling.

Although it may improve slightly with bottle age, Bin No. 27 is ready to consume now. It does not require decanting, as a cold precipitation prior to bottling prevents any 'crust' from forming. Its well-knit structure, rich, velvety full body and luscious blackcurrant and cherry flavors, also evident in the nose, carry into an intense, lingering finish. Bin No. 27 should be served at room temperature either alone or with simple, classic last courses and desserts. It is best consumed within two weeks after uncorking.
