Massive sweet black fruit, toffee, americano coffee, and a bit of milk chocolate on the nose. Palate is rich with balanced tannins, fruit, baking spice, and wet earth. Finish is very long. Excellent wine with a hot curried meat dish.

From 375ml. A wild card thrown into the 1977-1994 Vintage Port tasting. This Cali "Port" is made from Petite Sirah grapes and is an explosive candied fruit bomb, that very smooth but also has elements of sweet Oak (or Oak that was infused with sweet wine) and a long finish.

This port is usually super good. This bottle had a soapy (strong) smell on the nose. Taste was flat but not way off. First one of these that was not right on out of about 100.
