  December 30, 2023 - Tellement riche tant à l'oeil, qu'au nez qu'en bouche! Resté bien en forme même après 57 ans et avec une telle palette aromatique, c'était merveilleux avec les fromages et la bûche marron/cassis. Assurément dans mon top 5 des plus de 200 vins dégustés cette année.

  November 27, 2021 - LOVE THIS WINE -
  Smooth - caramel color, and flavor with almonds, cherry, oak, apricot, notes. A bit of fig.
  
  The wine looks caramel-colored. The legs are slow. There is moderate sediment in the bottle. It smells like a peach blossom, almond, hazelnut, honey, apricot, pear, and fig. It tastes like fig, cherry, apricot, pear, oak, almond, and butterscotch.

  September 30, 2021 - 2021 FTLOP Harvest Tour; 9/19/2021-10/2/2021 (Portgugal): Bottled in 2015. Light brown-orange in color. Toasted coconut, vanilla, and roasted hazelnuts on the nose. Some acidity on the entry, giving way to a rich, sweet mid-palate, that further gives way to more noticeable acidity through to the finish. Very long finish with caramel, orange peel and balanced tannins.

  June 30, 2020 - Very smooth, rich and complex Port, at the very high end of the tawny hierarchy. In great shape at 54 years of age. Definitely a buy if you can find it.
