NV Alves de Sousa Quita da Gaivosa 10 year old white port

Post by Rune EG »

Bottled 2013. 30 minutes decanting. Yellowbrown colour.The alcohol is dominant in the aroma, which is unusual for 10 yr white ports. Some oak, bitter dandelion, jam, ginger, Medium body. Taste is at start rather smooth and round, but the alcohol is also dominant in the taste. Furthermore citrus, peach and pleasant tannins. Acidity/sweetness balance is OK. Bitterness towards the end. Short aftertaste. 83 pts.
