I really love Tawny Port and was quite surprised as to how good this Aussie version is. An NV, but the average age of the blend is 21 years. Soft on the pallet and not too sweet. You know this is a fortified wine, but the alcohol is not overpowering. Plum, fig and raisin flavors. A “Sherry-like” nuttiness. Really terrific! Thank you, Mark Smith. Revisited in May 2020. Still fantastic! An after dinner wine to share! Revisited again in June 2022. Still fantastic.
