WTN: NV Cockburn 10 Year Porto Tawnky Port

by JC (NC) » Wed Nov 01, 2017 5:44 pm

20% abv. I consumed one or two ounces a day until the 500 ml. bottle was finished. Sort of a burnished cordovan color. Prunes, figs, and caramel toffee on the nose. On the palate, nuts mingle with fruit and honey. I enjoyed this but likely would give a higher score to the 20-year tawny. I am surprised that only 60% of CellarTracker posts indicated that they liked the wine, but it was from a very small number of people which could skew the results. (My liking it raised the percentage from 60% to 67%) From CellarTracker.

I tend not to be a 10 year Tawny fan. I prefer more aged character. That being said, I cannot recall the last time I really spent any critical time with one.
