What about the Fonseca 10 year old Tawny didn't you like?

Re: N.V. Fonseca Porto 10 Year Old Tawny
it was uninspiring at best. the amount of character it had was gauged as "small amounts".
while it didn't break the bank, i'm really hoping to find better 10 years out there. while i do not feel qualified to assign "points", it wouldn't surprise me to see others score this in an 85 point range. and life is just too short!

I agree, while the Fonseca 10 year is a decent bottle of Tawny and I have enjoyed it for an easy drinking QPR, there are others that I prefer for just a couple dollars more.
