Sep 10th, 2016Oh my god! What a wonderful dessert wine.
Burnt orange color with a copper hue and a pale yellow/orange rim. Color in the bottle is more brown than orange.
Immensely strong nose of curry, indian spices (as if you walked into an Indian restaurant), cinnamon, coffee, brandy, orange peel, tumurac, raisins, figs and dates.
Extremely smooth and soft on the palate, with figs, raisins, dates, coffee, sweet candy, citrus and sweet cherries.
Sweet, Full bodied, bold and buttery with great legs. It actually tastes like a liquor would, without the alcohol burn.
Long finish with a trace of brandy.
17% alcohol.
The high acidity makes this sweet dessert wine, very balanced and non cloying.
Poured from a 375ml bottle.
This is a non vintage bottle, but I held it for 8 years in my cellar, and boy does it show...
