"This is a full-bodied, barrel-aged wine with lovely structure and fruit. It has a subtle, sophisticated toasty note. Aromas of apple, apricot, and yellow plum come through in a texture that is still youthful. The native grape varieties used are the same as those in Port blends. If you’re looking for richness and roundness, you can wait until 2017.” (Wine Enthusiast 2015 – Roger Voss)

Very pleasant on the nose and with good length on the palate. One to remember.
