:arrow:Tasting Notes:


The wine had a lotttttttt of sediment,quite unusual but after some many filtrations it was quite proper to drink.

The colour was quite pale,between the straw colour and caramel.There were not (as I suspected)many tanins but there were not too many fruit flavours,there was mostly the chocolate flavour altough I had the sensation that it was a little bit corked.It had a ver nyce aftertaste where we can teast some tea,like the earl grey and some notes of old timber.
This was the oldest VP I ever tasted,so I don't have any other to compare altough I must say that it was an experience of life,specially because it's from Morgan wich is my dog's name! :D

Welcome back, I was wondering where you had been. Hopefully I shall get to meet you when I get to Portugal in 2 days time on Roy's trip.

Gustavo, muito obrigado.
