NV Quinta da Fonte Nova Tawny 10YO (bottled 2021)

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Tasted at LaDo.

Quinta da Fonte Nova 10YO, bottled 2021. A nice red core to the colour, 40% opaque. A little honey and râncio, baked but not in a bad way. Honey on the palate, dried raspberry; a great balance to the mouth and good evolution delivering nice complexity. Gentle clove and cherry aftertaste and a fantastic length. 90/100. Tasted 25-Jun-22.
Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
