NV Quevedo White VVO (bottled 2024) - Tonel 14: Granpa's White

Post by winesecretary »

From 90ml

A deep faded mahogany

Smells like a well polished mahogany dining table

Sweet opening with orange and then nut brittle. Fades to a pleasant warming citrus peel finish with a spritz of orange peel oil.

This is very attractive wine.

Sadly, the 2024 advent calendar was the last of the Tonel 14 VVO Granpa’s White. The remaining stocks have been blended with some younger white Port to create the mother wine for the new 50YO White.
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!
