GRAHAM’S 20-YEAR-OLD TAWNY PORT DOP, Portugal

COCCHI DOPO TEATRO AMARO VERMOUTH Piedmont, Italy

Tawny Port is always exciting, but if you can afford to splash out, go for a 20 Year Old. All the major houses make wonderful aged tawnies and this is always one of the best. Ethereal and mellow on the palate, it boasts flavours of toffee and caramel, burnt orange and raisins, dried plums, hazelnuts and a savoury hint of mushroom on the finish. Wonderful stuff! Drinking window: 2019-2028. Score: 96 (Andy Howard, MW, decanter.com, undated)

A higher proportion of bittering cinchona is offset by additional sugar for a deftly balanced vermouth. Flavours of rhubarb, sarsaparilla and cherry bark lead to a minty, peppery finish. Score: 95 (Michaela Morris, decanter.com, Dec. 27, 2018) 27849 (S) 750 ml $39.95 2 Online & Flagship Exclusive

Extroverted, with a blast of blueberry and açaí berry compote aromas and flavors taking the lead, followed by waves of warm fruitcake and melted black licorice. Really solid graphite spine is well- buried, giving this the support it needs while the fruit drives through. Very strong. Best from 2030 through 2050.
