20 Years Old Tawny Port, Porto
Wine Spectator
92 Points
Elegant and focused, with a mature bent to its mix of cinnamon, tea, sandalwood, date and caramel notes. Stylish finish has a twinge of walnut husk keeping it grounded.

More obviously tawny in colour than the 10 Year Old. More complex aromas too. Dried fruits and candied peel but also a more nutty quality with caramelised fruit. Rich, deep and beautifully fresh on the palate with an intense flavour of caramelised orange and orange peel. Excellent integration of the spirit here, mouth-filling but finishes fresh even with all that sweetness. Very long. Impressive.

Much along the same lines of the 2020 release I saw last year, this is a gentle 20-Year with a hit of sugar and a very youthful feel. The extra year in bottle has tamed the sugar just a bit, so this does seem a little better balanced now. That extra year doesn't change the rest of the picture, though. This remains very gentle and understated, perhaps even more so. There's not a lot of power, but it has enough depth to balance the fruit and sugar.

Always a perfect stage for a tawny Port, this wine is sumptuous while also having some dryness and elegant old gold character.
