Orange to brown colour, the nose is not showing very much, on the palate very sweet, sticky, little fruit, not well structured, sweet and disharmonious aftertaste. Very disappointing in contrast to the stunning Porto Pocas Colheita 1989. My first and last bottle of Porto Pocas 10 years old Tawny.

I won't post a TN because it's been so long since I drank it, but a couple of years ago, I tried this wine also. It was rubbish. Slightly better than a standard tawny - perhaps more depth - but still rubbish. I've never touched the 10YO from Pocas since - but I've enjoyed their Colheita 1987. Strange that there's such a difference.

Nikolaj,
Don't worry about posting an older tasting note, just put a little line that you drank it in 200x or so forth. The more notes we have the better for all of us here.
