Place: COWI building in Århus - Quevedo tasting
Condition: Served at around 14 degrees Celsius
Color: Brownish hue mixed with a blurred orange property, semi transparent
Nose: Lovely nose of burnt caramel
Note:
Full body with predominant notes of caramel, apricots and marmalade. Luckily this just has enough acidity left to counter the sugary components making this a nice a balanced port. It is quite intense and needs to be sipped, but I enjoyed it immensely. Just delicious
Info: This was part of a tasting session with Oscar Quevedo. Time for making elaborate taste notes was scarce.
Score: 91+ points
