The riveting sweetness is balanced with a palate cleansing acidity. An abundance of raisin, sultanas, vanilla, dark chocolate and dried fruit on the nose and a play between ripe fruit, concentrated minerality and voluptuous tannin structure results in an unexpected, lingering sweet finish.
Wine pairs perfectly with any desert with chocolate and cream, cheese, and the perfect end to a high tea.
