Tasting Notes

Colour

mahogany

air Nose

if it does have Port, it is very old Port. No red berries, no exuberant touriga nacional, rather a lot of moist pipe tobacco and some walnut wine. With water: wonderful earthy tones. Potting soil, humus, black oyster mushrooms…

restaurant Palate

it's not unlike an old Speysider ex-oloroso, really. Chocolate-coated Christmas cake and cloves. With water: quite incredible, spicier, getting bigger and spicier as you add water, which can be tricky

timer Finish

very long, very much on pipe tobacco and black raisins or Zante currants
