NV Messias Tawny 20YO (bottled 2019)

Post by M.Charlton »

Not quite as orange in colour as Sandeman 20, but not far off the mark. A lovely colour indeed. Very nutty - hazelnuts and orange peel on the nose. Entry much more dainty than I was expecting (based on the nose), almost like a diluted marmalade mixed with lightly roasted nuts. Grip excellent, and though whilst a little drier than I’d like, it is really is marvellous stuff.

From a bottle bottled in 2019 and enjoyed on 2.10.21.
