This has a deep brick-chocolate colour; the nose is picking up some sweet prunes, hints of toffee with some hazelnuts and walnuts and a tad of sweet cocoa. Very port-like in the palate though a bit lacking the concentration of some ports; detecting more of that sweet prune juice and figs, unsweetened cocoa, with some raisins trailing off; somewhat chewy as well. Medium-full bodied with a medium+ finish. Part of Last Bottle's surprise six pack.

$240 Last Bottle 6-bottle mystery pack. Bottle leaked some, apparently in shipping, but wine appears undamaged. This was a pleasant surprise. Viscous. Port like flavors with a smoky finish. Doubt I'd ever have bought this without trying it first.

Amazing to finish the night, similar to a 20 year old tawny. Dry figs/prunes, lovely sweetness.

Holding on no problem. Perfectly balanced and smooth right now. Driven by walnut and pecan. Delicious.

very black purple color, aromas of violet flowers and chocolate, fine grained tannins, refreshing acidity and long length of finish.
