NV José Maria da Fonseca Moscatel Setúbal Alambre 20 Years - Portugal, Península de Setúbal, Setúbal (11/17/2013)
Tasty and full in the mouth. Flavorful and yummy but not v complex. Finish is nice but not memorable. Given it comes in a 500ml bottle, would look to pay under $25. Suspect won't find it that low. (91 pts.)

I've had this before and really enjoyed it. Got mine in the Lisbon duty free for about $25 if I remember correctly.

This is a nice bottling but I greatly prefer the old version, the original bottlings of the 20 year old Roxo by JM d F.

I found several of these older bottlings in my offsite when I was doing some re-org of it recently. Forgot I had them. I brought one home but haven't yet opened it. But I too like the older version of it better.
