TN - José Maria da Fonseca Moscatel Setúbal Trilogia
Posted: Sun Jun 17, 2018 2:05 pm
A blend of wines from 1900, 1934, 1965. Bottled in 1999.
Color - Dark reddish brown with a distinct green rim.
Nose - Bold aromas of polished leather, varnish, brown sugar, oak, and campfire smoke
Taste - Rich thick mouth feel, great depth and power. Toasted caramel sauce, creme brulee, brown sugar, elegant red fruit. Just enough acidity to keep it in balance and prevent it from being cloying.
Finish - Medium length, pancake syrup, brown sugar. Fades to dry oak. Vanilla slides in late.
A fantastic example of aged Moscatel at an attractive price point compared to single vintage bottles. 94 points.
