Osborne Fine Tawny Porto 75cl
AED 65.00
Nutty, caramel-leaning tawny Port from Portugal that makes dessert feel optional. Think dried fig, toasted walnut, and orange peel, with a warm, cocoa-like finish that keeps you coming back. It’s the kind of Port Wine you’ll reach for when you want rich red-wine vibes, but with way more depth and comfort.

This tawny Port is your shortcut to instant cozy. It’s rich, nutty, and loaded with those late-night dessert flavours, without getting cloying or one-note. If you like red wine but want something darker, deeper, and more indulgent, Osborne’s Fine Tawny is a seriously good move.
- Appearance: Tawny, amber-ruby colour with a glossy, slow-moving look in the glass.
- Nose: Dried fig and raisin, toasted walnut, caramel, orange peel, and a hint of baking spice.
- Taste: Layers of toffee, dates, and cocoa, with a gentle sweetness and a lightly nutty edge that keeps things balanced.
- Body: Medium-full and round, with a warming feel that reads like dessert in liquid form.
- Finish: Long and cozy, lingering on caramelized nuts, dark fruit, and a touch of spice.
What makes tawny Port so fun is the flavour shift. You’re not just getting fruit, you’re getting all the extra stuff that shows up as Port ages in oak, like nuts, caramel, and that orangey, dried-fruit vibe. That’s why this style feels so satisfying after dinner, or when you want something that hits richer than a typical red wine.
Osborne Fine Tawny also earns its place as a kitchen cheat code. It brings instant depth to dessert moments (think chocolate, nuts, dried fruit), and it’s a classic Port Wine flavour profile that plays nicely when you’re building a cheese board with aged cheddar, blue cheese, or anything with a salty, savoury bite.
If you’re new to Port, this is an easy entry point. It’s clearly sweet, clearly complex, and it doesn’t ask you to decode anything. You just pour, sniff, and go, yep, that’s the good stuff.
And if you already know your way around fortified wine, this scratches that tawny itch with all the right notes, dried fruit, nuts, caramel, and a finish that sticks around.
Fun Fact: The Osborne name is famously tied to Spanish sherry too, so this Port comes from a house that’s been obsessed with fortified wine culture for generations.
