Pretty deep amber copper color. Baked apple, dusty brown spice, and sweet honeycomb aromas follow though to a rich full-bodied palate with brown sugar, honey, and toasted nuts. Finishes with long, sweet and tangy, honey and spice fade. 2006 World Value Wine Challenge–"Best International Fortified Wine" World Wine Championships award: Silver Medal, rated 89 points (highly recommended) (Sherry)
