 Tasted by finewinebuff57 on 9/4/2018 & rated 90 points: Cask 853. As before, reliable, delicious, great value. (221 views)
 Tasted by barrkel on 8/12/2018 & rated 90 points: Very oaky sweet red in style of port, vin doux natural. A solid amount of depth, not unusual for solera system wines, but also heaps of oak and tannins. The tannins offset the sweetness rather than acidity, but the overall effect is very pleasant for us - but we love oak. (211 views)
 Tasted by Jkillat on 4/17/2017 & rated 95 points: I don't just like it, I love it!
I have had the opportunity of tasting this several times and every time I am overwhelmed by the unctuousness of it. This is just the perfect match to anything chocolatey. It's a dessert on its own. The perfect balance of sweetness and acidity.
What a shame that eventually there won't be any of this available any more. (410 views)
