S. Leonardo 10 Year Old White Port
Bottled 2020
C: light honey with a clear rim. Very clean.
N: vanilla, pineapple, faint mango, yellow cake mix
P: faint pineapple and peach. There's a faint bitter edge, but just enough to give it character. The yellow cake is now baked and iced with a white semi-cream cheese frosting. This youngster still exhibits the classic tropical profile of the mid-to-late 2000s offerings from many producers.
F: more peach and a creamy vanilla note. Fades quickly but then lingers faintly for quite a while.
Score: 91 points. Very pleasant. Goes very well with food.
