40 year Old Tawny Port by Rozes
Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2008 11:55 pm
This was the at the end of a Madeira tasting:
This interesting tawny in an old-style port bottle was our dessert. With a brilliant brick color and a fruity and grapy nose the wine reminded me almost of a Moscatel de Setubal. Also on the palate this tawny was very fruity and grapy, sweet and mellow, again with hints of Moscatel. What an impressive wine, especially for me as a port-only-twice-a-year drinker.
Ha - my first posted Port TN, I hope there will be more as time goes by...
