    October 28, 2023 - Belle robe rouge orangé. Porto très complexe sur des arômes de caramel, pruneau, datte, raisin sec et noix. Enrobant et long en bouche, amertume de la noix et alcool présent, mais pas dérangeant.

    April 6, 2020 - Not very interesting nose, mainstream tawny notes. Oaky notes from the casks which is the most 30 years tawny style in this port. Medium acid. Not much complexity here.

    Tasted like caramel going down the throat. Good with Quebec cheese.

    January 31, 2010 - Decanted and drunk over 2 days. Showed itself best after 24h in decanter, a bit closed with prominent alcohol right after opening. At first not impressive but improved significantly after a day's decanting. Lovely smells of dried fruits with fig being prominent. Sweet taste with toffee, caramel and a hint of vanilla extract, with a satisfyingly full texture, though a bit on the light side for a 30 year old tawny. Tried it with some blue cheese with great success, as the prominent sweetness of the wine balanced well with the saltiness of the cheese. This isn't the best example of what an old Tawny blend can achieve and perhaps not quite the quality you should expect form a 30 year old. Even so it still better than many younger blends I've tried and since it went so well with the cheese I'm going to give it a little plus for that. 90 pts.
