Like blueberry syrup (18% alc.)!! It's fun to drink this kind of wine occasionally. Drank alongside a Carnival of Love (16% alc.). Very similar profiles/styles and actually a challenge to differentiate. If you're looking for the proverbial balance, you won't find it in these wines.

Like pouring out a bottle of ink. Dark with dense flavours of chocolate, cigar box/tobacco. Port characteristics especially on the finish. Huge wine!
