Crafted exclusively from pristine fruit harvested only in the finest seasons, this richly layered fortified wine is a luxurious blend of select vintages. Slow aging has given this wine extraordinary depth, concentration and complexity over time. Expect luscious notes of rich plum and raisin notes intertwined with baking spice, dark honey, toffee and subtle sandalwood aromatics.
Now under $20 with the Advintage Advantage, it's obvious value - and a standout option if you're looking for seriously delicious, fortified wine.

The winery writes "Pale Tawny, brick ruby red. Rich plum and raisin notes with hints of berry and flavours of fresh plum and raisin intertwined with baking spice. Vibrant notes with dark honey and sandalwood. Warming and luscious."
Gavin Hubble writes "This Fortified NV Wine has a deep tawny plum red colour with a shining hue. The nose has a classic tawny aroma expressing dark cherries, cacao chocolate, dried spices and mocha-coffee. On the luscious medium weight palate, you a well-structured fortified sweet red wine with a focus on those dark berry fruit flavours infused with dried herbs, cacao chocolate and a balanced amount of natural fruit acidity. This wine has been nicely crafted as a morish dessert-style red wine with a memorable finish."
