Tasting Notes:
Wine Spectator-Port, Portugal -Shows a slightly darker and richer profile than most of its peers, with fig, plum cake, dark licorice and toasted black sesame notes rolling through. Slightly gutsy, offering a brambly edged finish. Fragrant nose with aromas of mellow fruit and hints of honey and oak. Full body, velvety palate and long flavour some finish.
Food Pairing:
Drink it slightly chilled as an aperitif or at room temperature with a dessert.
