Notes sourced from Southern Cross Wines.

Directors Special Ten Year Old is a step-up in quality from the popular Directors Special. It includes small parcels of aged material that have been aged, on average, two or three years longer that the Directors Special brand.Made from a blend of Touriga and shiraz. As such the port exhibits some lovely rancio characters due to its extended maturation in small oak barrels. A fine brandy spirit has given the Ten Year Old an intriguing liquorice character on the nose and an extra degree of complexity on the palate. The Ten Year Old has a long finish and it is a great introduction to quality aged port. Directors Special Ten Year Old is a logical progression for a drinker of Directors Special who want to investigate the joys of premium port.Suggested food: Dried fruits, nuts and soft cheeses. 18% alcohol volume.
