  Kompakt mörk färg med en klarröd rand. Doft av damm, blåbär, kokta körsbär och nejlikor. Markant syra, lite hetta från alkoholen, liten stävhet. Kort. Helt ok, men mer privsärt med single vineyard vintage?

  very dark ruby with tawny rim. notes of prunes, fig and cherry mingle with clove accents and whiffs of alcohol. jammy in the mouth with some layers of fruit buoyed by notable acidity. moderate finish with subtle medicinal notes. not particularly structured, so no point in ageing this port.
  
  20% AbV; ~100g/L RS; bottled in 2022.

  Deep ruby colour.
  
  Pronounced aromas of fresh dirt, pine needles, cranberries, raisins, dark plum, camp fire smoke and chocolate.
  
  Pronounced palate.
  
  Full body, high acidity, sweet, medium tannins, medium (+) finish.

  Great match for salty blue cheese, there is lots of bright fruit here, cherries, sweet plum, and some herby notes, leading into a tangy intense clove and singed caramel finish.

  Ruby red. Nose is spicy with a hint of cherry. Bold with spice, followed by tea and dry cherry. None of the sweet chocolate that I usually expect, but perhaps some cocoa in the lengthy finish. I enjoy this.
