NV Blackett Tawny 30YO (bottled 2019)
Blackett 30yo tawny, bottled 2019. A deep and rich mahogany brown. Powerful râncio nose, lying over dates and beeswax. A smell to bring a smile of anticipation to your face. Surprisingly smooth and honeyed on the palate, soothing before a wave of acidity emerges to balance the honey. Rich and self-assured. Warm honey and dates, lemon and lime aftertaste and a long lime oil finish that delivers one wave of flavour after another. This is a fabulous tawny Port! 95/100.
