I don't prefer ports mainly because I'm so full of food by the time dessert comes but this one is exceptional. Only 3% sugar! Ports are usually 15%. That's why I usually don't drink them.

Probably a bit past it's prime, but quite good. Very chocolate, smooth, a bit jammy.

Not overly sweet, which makes it somewhat unique. Highly recommended if you wish for less sweetness in your Ports..

Just perfect for any dessert! Fruity, jammy, beastly blend has solid structure and an amazing finish for what I expected to be a "hot" wine at 18.3% - it is solid and velvety with blackberries, plums and some smoke to boot. Careful of the bottle as it has been squashed down which makes storing it in some cellar refrigerators a tight squeeze.

Wow! Delicious. This is essentially a port. 18.3 alcohol. Yummy. Viscous, thick mouth feel. Dense, complex dark fruits.
My only regret is that my husband doesn't drink ports so either I will need to have a glass a week or get some port-loving buddies over for after dinner drinks soon. Nice problem to have.
