Made from Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Barroca, it captures the depth, complexity, and elegance that have made Cálem one of Portugal’s most respected port houses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, it shows a refined brown-toned color with subtle greenish reflections, a hallmark of long barrel aging. The nose is richly aromatic, offering layers of wood, spice, and dried fruit, with the kind of complexity that only comes with time.\n\nOn the palate, it is silky and harmonious, balancing sweetness with mature nutty and dried-fruit character, along with a gentle spice lift and a smooth, lingering finish. This is a port built for contemplation, with excellent aging character already developed in bottle and the ability to hold beautifully over time once opened if stored properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis 30-year-old tawny is assembled from port wines selected after each harvest and then aged individually in cask before being blended and bottled only once the house style reaches perfect balance. The grapes come from Quinta do Arnozelo in the steep terraced vineyards of the Douro Valley, where the warm climate and schist-rich soils help produce concentrated fruit with fine structure. Vinification takes place at Cálem’s modern winery in São Martinho da Anta, while long maturation occurs in the cool, humid cellars of Vila Nova de Gaia, ideal for developing the refined oxidative style of aged tawny port.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe slightly chilled, ideally around 12–16°C, to bring out its aromatic detail and freshness. It pairs wonderfully with strong cheeses, pâté, dried fruit, foie gras, brownies, and pistachio desserts. Decanting is not necessary; simply open and pour, making it an excellent choice for an effortless yet impressive after-dinner serve.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFounded in 1859 by António Alves Cálem, Cálem Port has a long-standing reputation for quality and craftsmanship in the Douro. The brand’s identity was shaped by its early export trade with Brazil and by the use of its own ships, the ‘caravelles,’ which still appear in the house logo. Now part of the Sogevinus group since 1998, Cálem continues to earn recognition for the consistency and quality of its ports, blending tradition with modern winemaking expertise.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Calem","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54251800592721,"sku":"GCW-CALE-19002","price":84.25,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0874\/0614\/9969\/files\/Calem_Porto_Tawny_30_Years_Old.png?v=1783441495","url":"https:\/\/bottlehero.com\/products\/calem-porto-tawny-30-years-old","provider":"Bottle Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
