Cossart Gordon 10 Anos Verdelho Meio Seco Fortificado

Description

This Cossart Gordon 10 Year Verdelho is a delightfully perplexing wine – you might just find yourself wondering what it wants. The colour hints at a considered maturity, and the barley sugar sweetness is so refined it’s almost obsessively polished. It’s punctuated by a vibrant lemon note, alongside a subtle tea character and a surprising, brittle toffee. As Tom Cannavan noted with a respectable 88 points, it’s a wine with presence, and would pair wonderfully with grilled white fish or a perfectly cooked duck breast.
