NV Quinta do Mourao Tawny 20YO (S. Leonardo) (bottled 2022)

Open 30 mins.
A light brownish red, not in the least opaque. Viscous with thick gooey legs.
Nose of tea-poached figs and rose turkish delight with icing sugar.
Very sugary entry. Tastes at first almost like a white port, all wood.
Given lots of air through the teeth, leather and nuts on the finish and a decent lick of acidity.
A bit disappointing, this one, at first, but it is growing on me.
