-- tasted a single pour non-blind at winery tasting room over approx. 5 minutes -- -- this bottle was opened the day before we tasted it --
Red-orange color of medium-light intensity. Nose was less intense than the Fine Tawny (8 yr), and was pretty inexpressive. Compared to the Fine Tawny, this had a stronger golden raisin flavor; moderately sweet; an off-putting hint of epoxy on the dry finish; 20% alc.. This note is for the 2011 bottling of this wine, which is only the second year it has been produced.

Clear, brick with significant rim browning. Caramel, oak, honey. Low acids, low tannins, sweet. Date. Medium balanced finish. Tasting at Linda Blair.
