If you're looking for something different to fill your wine rack (or Tuesday night), pick this guy up. At first swirl (insert snobby connoisseur comment), it smells almost like a Ruby Port. If that turns you off, shame on you. If you've never had a Ruby Port, shame on you. A good Port is woooonderful. Not to say that this tasted like one, it just had the dried fruits (mostly raisin and cherry) of Port. It was light and full at the same time with a slightly smokey finish. One glass is all you need for instant satisfaction.
