Description
Cockburns Special Reserve Port 75cl, 20% is a classic Portuguese Reserve Port from Cockburn’s, one of the historic names of Port wine.

This bottle delivers a rounded profile built around ripe cherry, plum, strawberry, red berries, soft spice, smooth tannins and velvety fortified wine sweetness. Matured in oak vats before bottling, it gains balance and texture while keeping a generous fruit-forward character.
