ABV 20%
A very complex purple late-bottled vintage port with aromas of black fruits, earth, and chocolate. A full body wine with a medium sweetness perfect for dessert cakes, chocolates, or mild cheeses.
A classic port that will keep for decades. It probably would have been best if I had waited until 2027-2035 before opening…oh well.
