Elephant Island Orchard Wines Fortified Framboise 2007

Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaDeep dark raspberry cherry colour. Incredibly intense fresh raspberry nose with fresh jam, minty, spicy notes. Ripe, round, rich, fresh, somewhat sweet style with good acidity but a tad warm. Again, incredibly intense raspberry/black raspberry, minty, mineral flavours. No lack of intensity here, try on ice cream or chocolate or as a kir. First class.Tasted: 14 May 2008Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
