Penfolds Grandfather Fine Old Liqueur Tawny Port NV Rated 92WA
Description: | Wine Advocate Review. Rated 92. The 20 year old Penfolds Grandfather Rare Tawny is a pale tawny color with a touch of brick. On the nose it is a bit spirituous and shows notes of raisins and fruit cake, some hazelnut and creme brulée. The palate shows even more nuttiness and depth along with greater freshness and acidity, though it seems drier than the Father. It finishes very long almost like a sweet oloroso or amontillado. Wine Tasting Notes. Deep amber - mahogany in color with the green gold tinges indicative of great age. The nose is extremely complex and fragrant, possessing an array of nutty, vanillin, aged characters melding seamlessly with hints of raisined fruit, malt and lifted spirit. The palate effortlessly displays the famed attributes of great Liqueur Tawny; luscious, rich and full flavored with mouthfilling viscosity and a slightly dry finish. Intense raisined fruit, walnut and toffee flavors harmonise with subtle vanillin oak. |
