Red grapes were crushed and left on skins, with spirit added part-way through so the ferment stopped and the sugar stayed, and the wine was then matured in wood ahead of bottling. Big bottles from a vintage this far back turn up only in small lots.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExpect dark fruit, dried fig, cocoa and a nutty rancio edge over a soft, gently sweet palate, the spirit long since folded in. Pour it at about 16°C in small glasses at the end of a meal, with blue cheese, walnuts or something plain and chocolatey; an open bottle will sit happily for several weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.
