NV Quinta do Mourao White 40YO (bottled 2022) (S. Leonardo)

Post by winesecretary »

A light mahogany, no opacity, green rim.

Nose of dried figs and nuts, little bit of salted caramel and butterscotch.

Palate dominated by sweet roasted apricots.

Distinctly sweet even in this genre. A hint of ... not tannin but ... barrel, late.

This note made when open for three days. Definitely disappointingly dumb the first day, despite recent bottling. Nota bene.

This sample 25/4/23
