| This wine is a great buy. The wine exhibits a light to medium amber color as well as an extraordinary bouquet of molasses, brown sugar, roasted nuts, and sweet fruitcake. Unctuously-textured as well as juicy, sweet yet fabulously fragrant and well-balanced in the mouth, this is a spectacular fortified wine to savor slowly after dinner. After bottling it neither improves nor declines, and is capable of lasting up to a decade. --Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate, October 2002.
Amber in color, lightly fortified, syrupy sweet and rich with almond, dried apricot, orange peel, coffee and clove flavors, which mingle seductively on the long finish. Drink now. 2,000 cases imported. (HS) --The Wine Spectator, July 31st, 2003.
