Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: Opaque ruby. The nose here is loaded with muscular fruit and spice, blackberry, dried cranberries, mincemeat and chocolate. The palate is sweet with a juicy wallop of fruit flavours. Full bodied with great texture, balance and structure leading to a sweet, fruity, spice-edged medium-long finish. My note: Beautiful! Love this style of port: more cherry liqueur than darker notes. Try it. Food matches: flavourful cheeses, berry-rich desserts.
