NV Graham Tawny 20YO (bottled 2012)

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Bottled 2012. Light orange colour, 20% opaque. Served very cold and so showing little on the nose. Rich mouthfeel on entry with candied orange peel and marzipan on the palate but also a lovely balancing acidity. The richness comes through on the aftertaste, full of the slight bitterness of Seville orange peel. This is a big step up from the 10 year old. 89/100. Pop 'n' pour. 4 Sep 2013.
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!
