"This is a mature, barrel-aged wine with lovely structure and fruit. There's a subtle, sophisticated toasty touch. Scents of apple, apricot and yellow plum are expressed in a still youthful texture. The indigenous grape varieties used are the same as for Port blends. If you're looking for richness and roundness, you can wait until 2017." (Wine Enthusiast 2015 - Roger Voss)
