Tasting Notes

Nose

Dark berries, plum jam, cocoa, and a peppery rye edge wrapped in stewed fruit and oak.

Palate

Plush and sweet-savoury. Black cherry, raisin, dark chocolate, clove, and the dusty pepper of rye holding it all in check.

Finish

Medium, soft, fruit-led — port lingers alongside cocoa and a gentle spice fade.

Expert Review

8.2/10

Kentucky rye, Canadian rye, and a splash of California port — an unlikely trio that somehow sings.
