Just perfect for any dessert! Fruity, jammy, beastly blend has solid structure and an amazing finish for what I expected to be a "hot" wine at 18.3% - it is solid and velvety with blackberries, plums and some smoke to boot. Careful of the bottle as it has been squashed down which makes storing it in some cellar refrigerators a tight squeeze.
