10-YEAR-OLD TAWNY PORT DOP, Portugal
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note Producer BURMESTER
A REPEAT that was originally released on December 3, 2022 at $29.95. Here is my previous tasting note: Gently ambering light garnet red colour. Intense, spicy, raisiny, sweet, honeyed, nutty, caramel nose. Sweet, medium bodied, nicely textured, toasty, spicy, intense, caramel and ripe plum flavours with a lingering, vanilla-tinged, slightly raisiny, gently tangy, lingering finish. Seems quite ready-to-drink, but it should hold for the long run. Has 20% alcohol and now 100 g/L residual sugar. CSPC 223958
