Medium bright gold color. Aromas and flavors of hot candied apple, honey, banana and peach taffy, and honey grahams with a syrupy, lively, sweet medium-to-full body and a hot, stimulating, short-to-medium finish displaying notes of hot honey from the plastic bear, banana laffy taffy, candy apple, and peach and lemon cough drop. Floral and fruity with ample sugar for dessert pairings and a bit of an alcohol burn to let you know that Friday evening dessert is in fact the party starter.

Domestic Port-Style Wine

Wine Glass Port.jpg
Serve in a Port Wine Glass
Domestic Port-Style Wines are those made in the style of Portuguese Ports wines but grown and vinified in the United States. Wines made in this style are typically fortified with brandy or distilled grape spirits which causes fermentation to stop and also increases alcohol. Flavors are typically sweetfruity, nutty, and have a stronger alcohol presence than standard table wines. The best examples are highly comparable to true Ports.
