NV Quinta das Lamelas White 10YO (bottled 2020)

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Bottled 2020 in 50cl. A deep honey orange colour, 30% opaque. A little orange blossom honey on the nose, sweet and floral. The orange blossom honey leads on the palate, with generous pepper and good acidity keeping the balance. The honey is intense and fragrant and fills the mouth. Good intensity of flavours on the palate and the aftertaste, with the honey slowly blending in with dried mango. Lovely, sweet and balanced wine. 92/100. Drunk 08-May-22. Decanted ½ hour.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
