(Bottle 75 cl) Courtesy of nicolascage. Slightly hazy, reddish brown with a creamy, light brown head. Vinous and complex aroma of dried fruit and port. Quite full-bodied with very sweet caramel flavours, some overripe fruit, vanilla and sherry. A little low in carbonation and a very subdued bitternes. This really is like fluid candy. Very delicious indeed. 191207
