Tasting note

This sweet red displays a complex and intense nose featuring empyreumatic, spicy and fruity aromas. On the palate, its refreshing acidity and unctuous texture precede a long finish.

Fresh, with plenty of vibrant acidity behind the cocoa, vanilla and dried apricot flavors. Spicy and creamy notes linger on the long, broad finish. Try a glass of this 20-year-old tawny chilled as a before dinner tipple accompanied by spiced nuts and hard cheese. It is lightly sweet, with a fascinating nutty quality that enlivens the palate rather than satiates it with undue opulence. Once opened, have no fear, this will hold up remarkably well in the fridge over many weeks!
