750 ml. bottle packaged 8th of November, 2018.
Added on the 19th of March, 2019.
Opened today, the 19th of December, 2023, on my 71st birthday!
Better late than never!!
Moderate to vigorous pour yields a 1/2 inch tan head over a black body with no lacing.
Nose of dark roasted malt, port, oak, and dark cherry. As it warms, the port aromas get much sweeter
Taste mirrors nose pretty closely with the port's alcohol taking charge while having a wine-like finish.
Wow, this surely is a sipper!
Alcohol has calmed down considerably after 45 minutes upping the taste score.
Feel is thick, not syrupy, but port-y with low to medium carbonation.
Overall, I doubt if there are any more out there.
Grab it if you see it!
Cheers!!
