1945 Butler Nephew

Post by g-man »

popped and poured.

Pale ruby color that was clear all the way through.

Honeyed light black tea nose with hints of orange zest. no signs of spirits at all.

Delicate tangerine orange flavored tea with a light candied cherries finishing with a watery cherry jolly rancher.

No signs of heat at all.

Mature, delicate and seamless on the mouthfeel but a touch weak.

91.

When do we get more details?
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!
