Drank over multiple months and had my last glass last night. Best port I’ve had! Would love more to compare it to. Light brown color with great clarity. Lovely texture and depth with ample caramel, maple syrup, butterscotch, and brown sugar. Awesome!! — 6 years ago

Like a maple syrup cocktail, delicious. A bit more expensive than most 20 years, but I think it’s worth it. — 7 years ago

Toffee and maple aromas stand out in this Colheita. Flavours of biscuit and toasted pecan emerge thereafter. The finish is vaguely like vanilla. — 7 years ago

Inspired by the “Apotheca”, a mysterious place where some of the earliest wine was blended and stored, Apothic wines offers a truly unique wine experience.

A red blend emerges from the flames, creating a most unexpected and masterful encounter.

Paying tribute to a time-honored craft, this wine has been aged for 60 days in whiskey barrels, creating bold notes of red and dark fruit with layers of maple and spice. — 3 years ago

Baked blood orange, honey, roasted pineapple, maple syrup, candied nuts, ripe white flowers on the nose. Awesome underlying acidity. Medium finish of praline, vanilla custard, honey. — 5 years ago

After an hour or so of air, this is just gorgeous. Bright blackberry fruit, just-cracked stone, spice, a woodsy fungus thing, and a hint of pale maple syrup. Full- bodied and powerful, but with no jamminess or excess flab. Lots of stony minerality. Great pairing with mesquite-grilled grass fed burgers. — 6 years ago

Full-on Napa strip tease, with all the assets on show. Jam compote, coffee and maple syrup. So extravagant, it’s obscene. As @Carl Fischer described it, “an embarrassment of riches.”
Gifted by @Carl Fischer. Thank you kind sir. — 8 years ago

So great. Loads of ground, smoky sandstone, ripe blackberry, maple syrup. Rich, structured, so good, so balanced. My favorite Zin plot of land. — 6 years ago

2019 edition. A little thin compared to prior years. Might be due to the relatively weak/disappointing 2019 KBS base. Nevertheless, the bourbon and maple syrup are both present and water nice. The alcohol is well balanced, it doesn't feel hot at all like other imperial stouts. — 7 years ago

A lighter take on tawny port. Scents of Raisins, apricots, and maple syrup. Salted caramel and cashews. — 7 years ago
