Lighter amber color with some orange. Nicely perfumed, with notes of orange zest, nuts, some figs, also some citrus. It‘s medium-bodied, with excellent freshness and pretty high acidity, as well as a touch of tannin. Good length. A nice 20 years old Tawny that doesn‘t break the bank (normal bottle, we didn‘t have the „fancy“ one).

Vanille, Zwetschke, Gewürznelken in der Nase. Am Gaumen klarerweise sehr alkoholgetrieben, aber auch deutliche Frische (wegen der tragenden Säure), zitronige Aromen, wieder Zwetschke. Toll!

This wine was surprisingly light in color but age could be seen in the light red brown on the edges. A sweet nose of fig and caramel. Very smooth and silky with a blend of flavors including vanilla and butterscotch.

A decent wine with moderate complexity. Caramel, dried fruits and nuts. Good, but not great, orange rind tinged acidity. Moderate length. Quite enjoyable, but other options are preferred at this price point.

I was a little disappointed here. Had some high hopes, but those were mostly dashed. Some good texture and an interesting nose, but the wine was a little thin and a little hot.
