  April 9, 2022 - D5 DipWSET FORTIFIED WINES with Adam Chase and Matt Gaughan; 4/9/2022-4/10/2022 (St Francis' Yacht Club San Francisco): A: Deep brown
  N: Pronounced intensity on the nose of MOLASSES, dried fig, PRUNE, RAISIN, coffee, dried dates, toffee, syrup
  P: Sweet, low acidity, low alcohol, full body, pronounced intensity and long finish
  Balanced because although the acidity is low, the wine tastes fresh and lively. Alcohol is balancing the sugar here and the sugar doesn't persist at the end of the finish. Classic PX here and yes, pour over ice cream for that bit of oomph after supper.

  October 18, 2014 - Sundried, fortified and aged for a decade this is literally like drinking a Christmas cake. It's one of the most delicious things you can put in your mouth! Exceptional with cheese.
