Port-Lover Does not like this wine: 70 points
December 11, 2021 - Not happy. Smelled very well, but tasted sour. No typical Tawny-notes, that you expect from a 20yo. Sour dominated, almost citrus-fruits. Not well integrated. Checked the bottle, was bottled in 2012. Bought it from the same store that I had other too old Tawnies from. Will not buy any more Tawnies from this store ever again, but will give this one another try sometime in the future.

November 20, 2021 - This is a delectable Port. Smooth, great mouthfeel, long on the palate. Perfect for after dinner.

November 7, 2021 - Surprisingly fruity and sweet (maple, toffee) for a 20 year old tawny, but very impeccably balanced with refreshing acidity and nutty, rancio tones. I think I prefer this over the Dow 20 year tawny (which I haven't had in a while come to think of it).
