A deep yellow gold colourwith a plummy, sweet, Mirabelle fruit, chilled fresh fruit salad note withtraces of orange citrus.
The taste is smooth and oily, the texture is roundand fruity. A dessert time dram and a very nice one at that!
With a few drops of water the story only getsbetter, from very good to really exceptional - the sweet wine plumminessbecomes volatile and brings an incredible, lasting finish.
A cracker!
