My Review: I was in Porto and I had to get Port wine! This wine is very fruity on the nose with hints of red fruit specifically raspberries with a tinge of chocolate. On the palate more raspberries came through as it was still very fruity. I also got chocolate. This wine was also very hot which makes sense since it is 19.5% alcohol. It is smooth but super sweet so I cannot have too much in one sitting. This would pair well with a chocolate mousse.
