The wine was a dark red with brown edges. Aromas of sweet cherry with spice, honey and nutty nuances. The palate is smooth with a molasses character, warm yet vibrant ending with some spice and oak. Lingers nicely. Tasting Sample.

Very unique for me, almost spirits like in its elegant weight. A very complex nose and palate vie for the tasters attention. Impressively long and intense finish. Caramels, salt, orange fruits and rind, and spice are just some of the things I go lot from the nose and palate. Would love more time with a bottle of this over a month or so. #port

Very sweet smell. Legs 10/10. Heavy, supple taste. Cherry and currant present on tongue, lots of natural grape sugar.

Intense and syrupy red fruit. Good tension and depth. Yummy.

Stunning. Pale red, almost brown in colour but with an amazing freshness despite its age balanced with a pleasingly mild sweetness.
