Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: The impeccable balance and structure shows that this wonderful Tawny Port comes from a single vineyard. The consistency in the flavors suggest this is from only one source. Aged in Oak Casks. Look for dried fruit, plum, chocolate and vanilla aromas. It is sweet, but in no way cloying. Full-bodied with a very long and elegant finish. My note: Gorgeous notes of toffee, almond, caramel, hazelnut and fig paste. Lovely after-dinner drink. Food matches: blue cheese, hard cheeses, baked apples, almond-based desserts, coffee cake.
