BUY THE WINE

Alison Buchanan: Green-tinged mahogany-tawny, this is rather restrained on the nose—vaguely hinting at dried fruits and orchard-fruit pastries. The palate is citrus fresh, given real lift and focus with raisined undercurrents prevailing throughout. Bright, focused, and energized, this is harmonious, layered, poised, elegant, and long. | 92

Andrew Jefford: Translucent walnut. Sweet, creamy, and lots of sugared mint, too, though with less orange charm than the best of its peers. Fat, sweet, weighty, generous: steamroller-like style, but not really the perfume I would be hoping for when I buy a bottle of fortified Muscat. However, a delicious fortified nonetheless, and there’s lots in here to enjoy. | 86

Margaret Rand: Savory, sweet, grapey; well balanced. Good freshness and acidity. | 86
