SILVER - 2021 Victorian Wine Show
"Deep, dense purple/red colour with a fresh, sweet blackberry aroma laced with spicy, floral spirit notes. The wine is sweet and fruity in the mouth, quite intense and bold, the spirit leaving a grassy grappa-like quality on the aftertaste. A very appealing vintage port style. The mild tannins make it very approachable young." 90 points, Huon Hooke
“Fantastic nose full of floral spirit, dark chocolate and licorice. Great length and intensity of sweet varietal fruit flavours with balancing tannins and dry finish.” 98 points, Winestate Magazine
THE WINE: This fortified wine displays colour tones of indigo and violets. The nose shows intense spicy raisin, ripe black currant aromas, developing into cherries and rich, dark fruits. The palate is overwhelmed by layers of liquorice, textural tannins and mouth-filling blackberry fruit flavours. This wine has extraordinary drinkability and is robust enough for maturation for an eternity.
FOOD MATCHES: Excellent with quince paste, a wide variety of cheeses - including soft rind, Cheddar, blue, goats and ricotta, and with nuts such as pistachios, walnuts, almonds and brazil nuts.
PEAK DRINKING: Now - 2033
WINE ANALYSIS: Alc/Vol 18.5% - PH 3.76 - TA 5.13
