375ml, bottled in 2006
Finished the last glass of the Graham's 10 year tawny so I opened this 1/2 bottle. The nose is so much more expressive than the Graham's 10 year. Vanilla, nuts, spicy pudding, and more vanilla. This has a richer and fuller palate with almonds, nutmeg, cloves, and a touch of heat that keeps it all in balance. There is a good amount of acidity and not much tannins showing...a very good balance for this 10 year tawny. The finish is medium/long and rounds out a solid aged tawny Port.
89 points.
