NV Quinta do Bucheiro Tawny 10YO

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Mahogany brown; slight heat on the nose, perhaps some toffee. Light bodied, with initially sharp acidity. Oddly lacking in fruit, but having some slight rubber tones. Dried dates and walnuts on the finish, which has a decent length. Not a great port, but acceptable drinking. 80/100 10-Jun-12 Pop 'n' pour
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!
