Quevedo Special Reserve Tawny

[Scheiny S]

I used John M.'s template from the Tasting Note/Score Structure thread viewtopic.php?f=7&t=39225

Color: maroon
Rim: tawny
Clarity: clear

Body: light

Nose: caramel, grape, blackberry

Taste: blackberry, grape, caramel

Mouthfeel:
-Acidity: medium
-Tannins: medium
-Sweetness Type: early. tasted like simple syrup
-Finish: moderate

A category we added to this template was how 'hot' or apparent was the alcohol.
The alcohol isn't apparent until the end, it's not very hot.

Conclusion: I like caramel a lot, so that's very appealing to me. The acidity helps balance it. But it is sweet enough that I wouldn't want more than two glasses in a row.
Would I drink this again? Yes
Would I buy it again? Yes, especially as a change from Rubies.

Yup, pretty good stuff for a more lower tier Tawny.
