4 /5

The wine opens to lush aromas of fruitcake, spice and plum pudding, topped off with melted butter and brandy snaps on the side. Its a rich and heady mix, embracing and warming, just waiting for the chill of night and an open fire. The fine, low-strength brandy spirit plays a wonderful supporting role - selected for its 'tails' character, all juniper berries, spice and fruit and 'hearts' - roses and apricots and brings warmth and richness to the wine.The palate is dense and layered, the tannins chewy and mouthfilling interwoven with rich, ripe dark fruits - figs, plums, star anise, licorice, cloves and candied citrus peel. There's line and length from the acid and tannin backbone, leaving the finish long, clean and fresh. This wine will build further complexing characters as it ages and will reward extended cellaring.

A tribute to old times: Early Portuguese Port wine from Shiraz grapes was made. At these beginnings recalls this Australian dessert wine from Australia, Vintage Fortified Shiraz is the style modeled on European models. Totally rocks! Intense violet-red, strongly spicy Shirazbeerenaroma, further tobacco, wood, chocolate and spices. Very fruity in the middle, elegant and astringent aftertaste.
