An outstanding fortified wine -- perhaps the only good wine from Sattui! Port-like nose and palate, very intense, very concentrated..

This is like a 20 year old tawny port, with some great depth. You can really taste the caramel, almond, and nutty character that the solera method imparted on this wine.
