Reviewed
March 26, 2020 (edited April 7, 2020)
Nose - Sweet sugared red berries, toffee, hint of leather, dark chocolate
Taste - Sweet red berries, toffee, gentle ginger spice/heat, syrupy apple juice
Finish - Lingering ginger spicy heat, lightly bitter red berry sweetness, light tannic leather
Score - 88/100
Final Thoughts - This was quite an interesting one in that the port influence I get is a very fresh red berry vibe which doesn't really line up with any of the ports that I've tried, but this is quite nice. I quite enjoy this sweet/candied red berry vibe I get from this one. Good balance of flavors, nothing outstanding, but just a good overall dram.
Would I drink it if offered? - Yes
Would I specifically order it? - Yes
Would I buy a bottle? - Yes, if priced about $50 USD
