Portugal
Broadbent 10 Year Old Malmsey Madeira
Cartuxa 2018 Evora Reserva
On the palate, bright flavors of blackberry, wild cherry, Earl Grey tea, and cured meat are accompanied by a rich, tannic mouthfeel. This wine reveals a beautiful balance of fruit, spice, and earth aromas, including black and red berries, black pepper, eucalyptus, Earl Grey tea, and toasted oak. The acidity contributes a pleasant vibrancy, while berry and tea flavors linger extensively on the finish.
Taylor Fladgate 20 Year Old Tawny
Taylor Fladgate 2009 Vintage Port 375Ml
Inky black with purple rim. A nose of great purity opening on a vigorous note of concentrated black woodland fruit laced with raspberry and plum. Around this dense fruity core, with its attractive vibrancy and minerality, is a fragrant and complex aura of citrus fruit blossom and wild herbal scents of mint and lavender. Supported by a tight warp of thick sinewy tannins, the palate explodes with concentrated ripe black fruit flavour which surges into the long finish before being gripped in a tight tannic embrace.
