Interesting dessert wine we have here. Great unctous legs on the glass. Almost like a sherry with a dark rose color. Tastes almost like a sherry as well. Nice long finish though. I'm not used to this one at all; this is definitely not like a Sauternes or anything close to it, more of a sherry/madeira like.
