Wine Reviews

Offers a plump, friendly feel, with cherries jubilee, singed cinnamon, red and black tea, and candied pecan notes all swirling through together. There’s a juicy underlay on the finish.

Singed cinnamon, dried cherry and persimmon notes form the core in this suave offering, which streams through a finish marked with bergamot, hazelnut and sandalwood. Leans toward flattering with its sweetness, while a bitter orange hint whispers on the finish to lend contrast and spine. Drink now.

There’s a lovely, rich feel as this slowly unfurls, allowing hazelnut, walnut and Brazil nut notes to meld with date, green fig and mulled cherry fruit flavors. Flashes of singed sesame, bitter orange and argan oil provide extra nuance through the finish. Gorgeous

The 2022 Quinta de Vargellas Vintage Port is expressive and perfumed, with floral notes intermixed with the classical crystallized fruit, herbs, spices, licorice and dark chocolate aromas.

Mid-deep brick red to amber/tawny colour. Rich candied orange peel aromas. The palate is similarly rich and full: sweet, spicy marmalade flavours with a just dusting of peppery tannin towards the finish.
