Tasting

Deep ruby-amber with port wine tones; medium-full body
Nose
Flamed oranges, rancio, raspberry, rum cake. Blackberries and blackcurrants with apple peel, raisins, fig rolls. Port wine spices — cinnamon, nutmeg, clove
Palate
Frothy mocha opening developing into dried cherries and roasted chestnut with ginger spice. Dark yet delicate sweetness of port syrup. Extra dark chocolate with faint liquorice root
Finish
Quite long with earthiness, mushrooms and soils alongside cinnamon, tingly pepper, and charred oak. Unique savoury-sweet contrast
