Deep youthful ruby color. Intense rich fruity nose crammed with pure blackberry, cassis, cherry, and plum aromas interwoven with notes of spice. The palate is full bodied and round, with a smooth velvety texture balanced by firm mouth filling tannins. The juicy black fruit flavors linger into the rich luscious finish.
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 allows 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 when bottled. It does not require decanting, as a cold precipitation prior to bottling prevents any "crust" from forming.
Serving Suggestions
Fonseca Bin no 27 is very well suited for the classic port and cheese combination. A good farmhouse cheddar would be perfect. It is also delicious with desserts made from dark chocolate or berry fruit.
