The delicate green highlights of the meniscus are characteristic of old cask-aged wines, and illustrate the quality and advanced age of this fine port. This complex, perfectly balanced port shows rich aromas of dried fruit and vanilla. Agitate the glass and spice aromas of cinnamon and cocoa are liberated. In the mouth, the attack is fresh, fine and delicate. Ripe, dried fruit softly merges with almond and hazelnut, culminating in vanilla flavors which linger gracefully on the palate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProfessional Ratings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e96James Suckling\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eComplex, showing lots of dates, walnuts and caramel on top of the dried fruit, savoriness and spices. A touch of iodine with oxidative notes and a hint of old leather. Excellent integration of alcohol and sweetness, with concentrated flavors and a long, near-salty finish that goes on for more than a minute.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e94Decanter\u003cbr\u003e\nThis sings from the glass with sweet spice, marmalade, molasses, clove, nutty, toffee, caramel and balsamic perfume. A very complex array of flavors, including roasted coffee, scorched earth, fig and walnut. A distinctive style, done very well. Highly impressive.\u003cbr\u003e\n94Wine Enthusiast\u003cbr\u003e\nThe wonderful old-gold color of this tawny leads into a generous, rich wine that has retained fruits while also showing a woody character that is typical of wines this old. With spice, dried raisins and intense acidity, it is a beautiful wine that deserves to be drunk just by itself.\u003cbr\u003e\n94Wilfred Wong of Wine.com\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Ramos Pinto 30 Year Tawny Porto is all about the complexity. It just wraps its nuances of butterscotch, vanilla, hazelnut, and sweet oak onto the palate and then some. The some, in this case, is just a long, long finish that never seems to stop. Enjoy this sweet nectar with a long conversation with a good friend.

Showing more complexity and notably more sweetness than the 20 Year also reviewed this issue, this is along the lines of the last release (the 2018) that I saw a while back. As it opens and the sugar blows off, especially a couple of days later, this shows off its complexity even more, but also just a touch of harshness. The key difference is really the complexity versus the freshness—in other words, about what you'd expect. The 20 Year has almost as much concentration and power as this elegant 30 Year, but the 20 Year is fresher and even more elegant (not that the 30 isn't rather fresh for its age), while the 30 Year is far more nuanced. I personally slightly preferred this, as I usually lean toward complexity, but reasonable minds might differ.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e93Wine \u0026amp; Spirits\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e“This starts with a crescendo and doesn’t stop,” said Justin Nash of NYC’s The Modern. It’s a broad-spectrum Tawny, the pleasures of its textures rolling out across the mouth and throat, the flavors delivered in layers of toasty, nutty complexity. It’s the kind of wine that will inspire conversation long into the night.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e93Wine Spectator\u003cbr\u003e\nThis is alluring, with whiffs of warm date, green tea and walnut backed by juicy fig bread and salted caramel flavors. The racy, focused finish lets a singed juniper note glide through.
