  December 11, 2021 - Sammamish Christmas Tasting (Sammamish, Washington): Bottled in 2021. Dark brown-amber in color. Some fun play doh on the nose at first sniff, which gave way to molasses and some nice vanilla and espresso notes. The acidity and balance are very nice. Long finish.

  July 23, 2021 - FTLOP 16th Anniversary Tasting; 7/23/2021-7/24/2021 (Seattle, Washington): What a way to end an evening of great Ports! This Brunheda's complexity seems to give off some new interesting aroma every time I smell it - vanilla, toffee, mahogany, cigar box. There are waves of caramel and orange spice on the palate that are absolutely fantastic. The rich finish ties a bow on the whole package with creme Brulé and amazing acidity.
