Fonseca 20YO tawny bottled 2019: deep amber colour, 50% opaque. Orange caramel nose, strong and well developed. Generous acidity and plenty of orange oil on the palate. A nice overlay of caramel giving a sense of sweetness but never out of balance with the acidity. Lovely rich mouthfeel and intensity of flavour to the aftertaste and long burnt orange finish. Much more enjoyable than I was expecting! 89/100. Opened 10-Apr-21.
