From 90 ml
Unusually, 21%.
P'n'P
A quite glossy dark reddish brown.
Big brooding powerful nose of dark dried fruits, unsulphured apricots poached in tea.
On the palate - wow, this is big and powerful and rich and very long. Not so much fruits on the palate as concentrated essence of dried fruits. If you told me it was made by macerating raisins and sultanas in cognac I'd probably believe you. In a way i suppose it is...
More like a very old liqueur muscat, or indeed a liqueur, than a port. Impressive wine, to be taken no more than a glass at a time.
