COLOUR
Intense brick colour

AROMA
Complex nose of chestnut, spices, dry grape, fig, and plum.

PALATE
The wine's full-bodied character is apparent on the palate, and it presents noticeable tannins that contribute to its elegant quality. Towards the end, the wine mellows, with dried fruits such as fig and plum making an appearance. There are still some fresh notes from the harvest that can still be detected, while the wine slowly transitions towards drier notes and nuts as it evolves.

This Port, while young, has a great touch of wood aging that gives it a spicy character. The wine has some tannins along with some sweetness and dried fruits. Drink now. — Roger Voss
