From a bottle purchased on release. The bottle was opened six hours before service.
Sorry for the short notes. Medium reddish brown in color. Really well balanced on the palate. It's got good acidity, but there's little alcohol heat. The fruit is really popping on this. I would rate the sweetness as "medium". Overall, this was an outstanding bottle of an outstanding wine.

Re: 1977 Fonseca
Shorts notes are still appreciated. Glad to hear this is still doing well.
