A singular blend of chocolate with fine old tawny port by Ballande Australia. Grapes are selected on the basis of heightened flavour profiles, good natural fruit sugars, ripe healthy tannins and judicious, complementing acids. Grapes are crushed and inoculated by aromatic yeasts, juices are vinified until the stage when sugar levels and flavour characteristics peak, whereupon a neutral spirit is added to arrest the fermentation. Following a transfer into prior use oak barrels for maturation and development of rich nut and rancio characters, the tawny port is treated to a fusion with the most exquisite dark chocolate, an immensely satisfying, toothsome delight to savour and to share. Alcohol 17.5%
