Douro Animus. Not great but not bad.
And today my favourite rosé. I have 4 bottles left and since the quinta/winery has been sold i can’t get new ones

Excellent. Needed a decant and 1 hour to show its stuff. Got a few more to sit on.
Hard to find in the US, got mine at auction.

Eric, how was this? I have a 1991 that I'm bringing to a tasting next month. What's the flavor profile? Are these good or meh?

2019 Passarella pedra do gato Dao. A very nice wine that improved quite a bit more by decanting. 2 days later there was still a glass in the bottle and it was still very enjoyable.

Sorry for the late reply. I hope yours was good. Mine was. I appreciate them more for the rarity than the flavor, but they are nice, a more generic sweet white profile. I don't remember the details now, but wouldn't be surprised by apricot or honey ... I don't recall highly developed sugar flavors.
