wine review

Sweet port rarely tastes this delectably dry. Sublimely balanced and energetic, Burmester’s 20-year tawny is uncommonly juicy and unfolds with a big essence of roasted nuts followed by dried fruit and a wealth of spices that help keep things lively. Tawny port has always shared a flavour spectrum with aged sherry, and this fortified Portuguese beauty could almost be mistaken for a Spaniard. Made for current consumption. Available in Ontario.
