November 11, 2023 - Some time since our last bottle. Very pleasant at first with good fruit and some character but it seemed simpler than earlier examples. Fair value and fair drinking for the price on offer but not a great Tawny and certainly not as good as our first examples of this wine a couple of years ago.
On reflection (and a day or two after first tasting), the wine showed as much caramel as fruit. It is not a good example of a ‘reserve’ Tawny (or this batch isn’t, at least). I have revised my score. -

June 22, 2021 - 잘 익은 브렌디나 꼬냑의 빛깔을 보이며
바닐라 오크 타바코향이 짙게 나며
실제 마셨을때 기분좋은 달콤함과 꿀향 오크향이 입안에서
은은하게 감돌아서 디저트 와인으로 손색없는 와인이었음
가격대비 성능비가 진짜 대단함 -

February 5, 2021 - We got some more of this before the Christmas offer ended. Excellent but modestly priced Tawny with all the positive qualities noted earlier. Lovely wine.

December 28, 2020 - Very attractive Tawny. Good fruit and balance with vanilla and chocolate character on the mid/end palate. Very good value for a decent Tawny at the Waitrose ‘Christmas offer’ price.
