I have actually never tasted this port, but have noted that many US-based FTLOP members like it a lot. And I fully agree. It is a bit different from many other 20 years tawnies, which is nice.
Bottled 2014. 2 hrs decanting. Brownred colour. Aroma a bit like an old, closed cellar, and also wood and herbs. Full body. Taste is pleasant and powerful, consisting of amongst others caramel, some wood, cardamom, cinnamon, ginger, minerals and a touch of bitterness. Liked this tawny port and are buying more. 94 pts.
