Some rye seed and Brazil nut. Full of richness balanced by layered spice and rancio elements. 95 points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eSHANTEH WALE, HALLIDAY WINE COMPANION 2026, MAR 2026\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e De Bortoli\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e Australia\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion: \u003c\/strong\u003eRiverina\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type: \u003c\/strong\u003e Fortified Wine\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV %:\u003c\/strong\u003e 19\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContainer Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bottle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal: \u003c\/strong\u003ePort\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"De Bortoli","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51518085955817,"sku":"PRMNT-DBOBOT-19%-500ML-PER","price":99.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2435\/3999\/files\/De_Bortoli_Old_Boys_21_Year_Old_Tawny_19_500ml.jpg?v=1784020599","url":"https:\/\/thewineprovidore.com.au\/products\/personalised-de-bortoli-old-boys-21-year-old-tawny-19-500ml","provider":"The Wine Providore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
