18%, 500ml This is a mistelle, that is grape juice (here from ugni blanc grapes) fortified with spirit (in this case a brandy that has been matured in oak barrels at Château Kefraya). It has a caramelly, oxidised, raisiny nose. Unsurprisingly, it’s like a low alcohol, sweetened brandy, but still maintaining a spirity touch. The back label says “boire glacée” and it would be better so served, though it’s not going to win any more interest nor character thus.
