Purchased for $25. Tasted for #tawnytuesday. Rust color, burnt orange. Cloudy. Initial nose of butterscotch and brown sugar. With some air, notes of dried orange. On the palate, caramel, brown sugar and dried bitter orange. Definitely on the drier side. Really nice acidity. Funny side note, I poured myself a glass of this with some bitoque.... and it was a wonderful pairing!!!! For $25, this is one of the best 10-Year Tawny deals out there. I'm definitely going to be trying their other Ports!!!

Purchased for $25. Served in a Riedel Vinum Port Glass. Burnt amber in color with an almost clear rim. Not sure I've ever seen that before. Rather ones dimensional and lacking any real complexity. Simple notes of nuts and sweet butterscotch. There's some VA on the nose which didn't blow off with time. Tough to get passed that. Very sweet palate. Short finish. Grade: B-

90 point Vin entusiast - Nogle røde nuancer i den gyldne farve, dyb duft af frugt konserver og nødder. Meget afbalanceret på ganen, delikate, frugtagtig og krydret, peberende nuancer i den friske og vedholdende efter smag.

Sweet and medium to weak acid. Not very complex.
