NV Barros Tawny 10YO (bottled 2015)

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Bottled 2015. Light brick-red colour, 20% opaque. Closed on the nose. Modest entry, light and elegant in style; more presence and sweetness that the Calem 10 year old tawny shown next to it. Slightly too little acidity for my preference but the better of the two 10 yo ports. 86/100. Tasted 05-Mar-15.
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!
