Last ‘07 bottle, aged well. Made with organically cultivated Sangiovese, aromas of resin, dried fruit and seeet syrup. On the palate, seeet honey and nuts with nectarine and ripe apricot. Long finish ending with nutty raw sugar character. Nice.

Almond and walnut biscotti to accompany. And a lemon gelato. Simply brilliant way to finish

Nose is slightly sharp and very potent with strong Molassas and currants. Palate is initially brightly sweet with fruit, honey, and currants, but it is a fantastic multi-staged ride, moving from fruit to molassas, dark honey, dried currants, and sweet grain. The finish lingers for ages. Beautiful and balanced, and radically different from most ports and other dessert wines. An absolute gem that should always be a first pick when you encounter it.

I rarely drink dessert wines but this melding of walnuts, spice and orange peel was a delicious and indulgent end to the meal.
