The nose of this wine is notably rich, with distinct aromas of ripe plum and luscious figs dominating the forefront. A subtle hint of floral notes adds a delightful touch, complementing the wine's overall bouquet.

PALATE
With its youthful character, this Port wine presents a refreshing and vibrant taste. The initial flavor is that of succulent candied fruit, particularly candied cherries, which tantalize the palate. As you progress to the mid-palate, the wine's tight structure becomes more apparent, marked by a robust presence of tannins and a hint of spiciness. The wine concludes with a return to its candied fruit notes, providing a satisfying conclusion to this delightful drinking experience.
