NV Quinta do Mourao Tawny 40YO (S. Leonardo)

Post by Andy Velebil »

This is from a 60 year old blend (average age). Light golden orange carmel colr that fades to a yellow edge. big nose of oak and butterscotch. The palate is very complex with many layers of butterscotch, vanilla, smoke, nutmeg, big acidity, and a finish that is 2-3 mintues long. One of the best 40 year tawnys I've had. 98 points
