NV Barao de Vilar Tawny 30YO

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Pale orange colour, 10% opaque. Unattractive nose, restrained and a touch of resin. Light entry with subtle hints of honey. The palate develops a little to bring out the honey and some lemon. Air adds more honey. The aftertaste is dominated by lime acidity giving a clean finish of long duration. 88/100. 22-Apr-16,
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!
