Brick red colour, 80% opaque. Well pronounced fragrant and floral nose with strawberries and crushed kaffir lime leaves. Smooth entry, round with pink marshmallow on the edges. Very soft tannins still sit wrapped in alpine strawberries and highlight the delicious floral elements to the late palate. The ginger root finish is a pleasant surprise, mixed in with sweet red jelly. Very long, very lovely port that is at its peak now. 89/100.
