"Just bottled about a month before tasting, it showed well, but there was a slightly eccentric nuance, perhaps a touch of volatile acidity. Only a touch, though. Still, it drinks well, with a good finish and notable power for a relatively young Tawny." (Wine Advocate 2018) Give it time to open up so it can offer you its finest aromas.

Expert opinion
Robert Parker - Wine Advocate
Rated (2018 guide) 88/100 (Good wine)
Domaine noté Recommended (Wine producer recommended by Robert Parker - The Wine Advocate)
About the wine:
The Colheita Tawny Porto 2004 is a plot-based blend, composed mainly of Touriga Franca (35%), Tinta Roriz (20%), Touriga Nacional (15%), Tinta Barroca (10%) and others, bottled in 2018 with a long cork and 100 grams of residual sugar. Fine and concentrated, this Tawny, in the house style, has a darker color than most Tawnys. Don't be confused, it's still a Tawny. Just bottled about a month before tasting, it showed well, but there was a slightly eccentric nuance, perhaps a touch of volatile acidity. Only a touch, though. Still, it drinks well, with a good finish and notable power for a relatively young Tawny.
