Can from Appellation Wines. Appearance - dark brown to black with some orange chinks around the edges. Lacy fawn head. Nose - burnt bread, raisins and treacle. Taste - treacle, raisins. Maybe dates. Palate - close to full bodied and rich in texture. Long linger. But fresh enough to allow you to return. Overall - great stuff.
