This ranks among the most elegant Tawny that I have crossed paths with. Definitively smooth and singularly balanced. Compact and poised, seamless, and very long. A delightful offering with which to close out a fine experience at Quinta do Bomfim.

Staggering colour of amber and deep teak. Baked apples, cinnamon toast, and limes/lemongrass (!) Intense attack of treacle and molasses, burnt sugar. Fantastic levels of fat and oily generosity. Staggering power. I adore this - it's colossal. It’s uncompromising in its assertiveness and conviction. Sensational.

Orange oil, orange peel, brown sugar, vanilla, baking spices, bitter herbs and oak. Medium sweet with a full body. Reminds me of certain sweeter Amari.

Quinta do Bomfim, Pinhão: My Port preference runs to vintage and LBV, over other styles.

Fuller, deeper than the Graham’s. Again the dark fruit overtures, but no hint of overpowering. Classic Dow nuttiness. Long finish.
