Optimus WineEstimated delivery between Dec 30, and Jan 1,
During the month of January following the harvest, Maison Fonseca puts powerful, highly concentrated red port wines into reserve, selected for the most part from the company's own quintas and showing good potential for evolution. Aged to maturity in oak barrels, these wines lighten as their lees settle to the bottom of the barrel. Racking aerates the wines, attenuating their original fruity notes in favor of more complex, nutty aromas. The cuvées blended from these stocks call on a vast reserve of old ports, each carefully selected to ensure balance between the various components and consistency of style.

Taste
Its smooth, silky texture, with finely woody accents, is balanced by lively acidity and eye-catching tannins before culminating in an elegant finish that lingers on notes of plum.
