Vintage Cellar Review: "It is a wine of beautiful appearance, color dress mature and well covered with light shades of cherry development. Its primary aromas of ripe red berry fruits. The palate expands exceptionally ripe and round: warm and fleshy, long, proud finish."
My Review: This wine smelled very sweet, akin to a port except not quite as strong. It tasted bone dry, with blackberry and mineral notes and a nice finish, counter to what you'd expect from the smell. It was a pleasant surprise.
I had this wine on its own without food.
