Fortified

Aging in oak barrels for over 24 months. Deep ruby red, extremely fruity, with notes of black cherries, pomegranates and plums. Wweet, with evident hints of red berries, cherries, Marasca cherries and pomegranates.

Shipped by Palmers in barrel and bottles here at the brewery, Martinez 1955 had not seen the light of day for over 60 years until we decided to release some from our bond. Martinez 1955 is a classic and is drinking perfectly. Please note that the Martinez 1955 vintage port has no label.

Full in colour with a richness and big depth of fruit. The tannins are softening, to be sure, but there is still lots of body and power that will allow it to improve for many years.

Sercial Madeira, 10 years old.

Bottled with an average age of over 25 years. It is dark mahogany in colour with an aromatic nose of nuts, dates, raisins, black chocolate and background hints of liquorice. Rich, smooth and full bodied with an attractive sweetness which does not obscure the wine's old Oloroso backbone.

A Californian Port made primarily from Tinta Roriz. A blend with an average age of 5 years, this is a younger, fresher style Port on release but matures more quickly giving it a light, prune character with chocolate notes balanced perfectly with fresh, red fruit.

The 2013 is another excellent LBV from Taylors. Plummy jam and hints of blackcurrant on the nose, with a rich palate of dark cherry and stewed fruits.

Deep ruby colour. The elegant and stylish nose combines fresh, intense blackcurrant and cherry aromas with subtle notes of liquorice and spice. On the palate the rich and concentrated black fruit flavour is supported by firm but well integrated tannins. True to the Taylor’s style the wine shows great balance and finesse.

Verdelho Madeira, 10 years old.

From one of the worlds top sherry producers, this vermouth is made from a blend of PX and Oloroso macerated with 27 botanicals (sourced locally where possible). Rich and mouthfilling, citrus peel fruit flavours are balanced with sweet spice and herbal characteristics. Delicious served over ice, with a splash of soda and garnished with a slice of orange.
