Not port, but quite port-like. Quite sweet, figs, raisins, some dark fruit. A wee bit heavy on the sweet. But definitely serviceable.

Jun 18th, 2017I was skeptical of this 10 year old tawny when I saw it -- I'm not usually a fan of Australian wines, and this was priced just under $15 on sale. The aroma calmed my nerves, the color got me excited, and the taste topped it all. Super smooth, rich caramelized fruit flavors and a luxurious golden amber color that is exactly what the name "tawny" implies. An amazing port for the price, this can stand up to other tawnys at twice the cost.
