From Douro's Founding Port House!
"Lighter than the 1999, this Tawny port is approachable and enjoyable as much for someone new to Ports as for the seasoned aficionado. Aged for 4 to 5 years in small casks until mature, it has lovely layers of red fruit and raisoned flavours, with nuttiness coming from the wood. Many Port drinkers acknowledge that a tawny can sustain its flavours once opened longer than a vintage port, owing to the fact that air has been working through it while in cask, while vintage ports succumb to air shock faster, owing to their long time protected in bottle. While a vintage Port will give its full potential for a few days to a week, a Tawny will continue to give its flavours for a month or longer."
