NV Porto dos Santos Tawny 10YO (bottled 2022)
Posted: 21:28 Tue 23 Jun 2026
Porto dos Santos Tawny 10YO, bottled 2022. A dark chestnut brown colour with a touch of brick in the tone; very dark in the glass, 90% opaque. Rich balsamic on the nose, sweet and sour combining with an opulent umami. Concentrated date and grapefruit, dried figs and so much complex dried fruit. Yet despite the sweetness, the acidity is rich and confident enough to balance the wine on the palate. The complexity on the palate is not quite matched by the aftertaste and finish, but the finish is long and absolutely delicious. An exceedingly impressive 10YO. 90/100. Drunk 15-Dec-24.
