Drunk at lunch at the Matosinhos fish market.
Burmester 40yo tawny, bottled 2019. Opened 30 minutes. Deep orange, hint of browning; 40% opaque. Fabulous nose of vinagrinho and caramel. Smooth texture, richly flavoured with dried fruit, dried cherries and nutmeg. Lovely caramel and burnt orange finish. Port with a wonderful presence and panache. 93/100. Drunk 25-Jun-22.
