Winemaker's Notes
Named in honour of the Founder, this Reserve is one of Sandeman's greatest Portos. Selected from the finest "lots" of each vintage and aged for 5 years. Full of the power, fruit and fire that distinguishes classic Porto, Founders Reserve is the culmination of two hundred years of expertise.
Tasting Notes Intense ruby red colour, brilliant and clean. Rich red fruit aromas with a touch of age create an elegant reflection of powerful favours, the fruit and fire characteristic of young classic Porto balanced with the finesse of age.
Food Pairing Excellent on its own served in large glasses, Founders is a perfect match with cheeses or rich chocolate desserts.
Serving No need to decant. Serve in large glasses to fully appreciate.
Storing Should be stored standing, in a dry place with constant temperature (10º-20º), avoiding bright light.
Shelf-life Recommended shelf life is 12 - 18 months.
Open bottle Shelf-life Once open Founders can remain fresh for up to 4 weeks.
