Incredible value. Very complex. Date, fig, lemon, pine needles, spruce resin, coriander and orange rind. Intense resinous flavours and dried fruits replay on the palate, with some black pepper spiciness. Rich and sweet, with ample acidity to balance. LONG finish with caramel raisin and orange rind.
This is one the most exotic tastes available at the LCBO and you'll either love it or absolutely detest it, but you definitely must try it. Tangy stewed raisin and figs with mixed spices; deep tawny/amber hues and quite viscous. Sweet is not the right word; it's actually a little potent. Great stuff! (Northof9finewine, April 2011)
Always worth picking up a bottle whenever it arrives at Vintages.
