Fuyu No Tsuki Dessert Wine 2020
Tasting notes
Concentrated fruits with notes of currants and dried cherries. Black pepper, herbes de provence, and molasses. Full bodied and mouth coating. The luscious sweetness is balanced by acidity and grippy tannins. Delicious and approachable now, but this wine will reward cellaring and develop greater complexity with time in bottle.

This Port-style wine aged in Cognac barrels has all the delicious black fruits and dark chocolate of a high-end Napa red, but with elevated alcohol and a moderate level of sweetness. It doesn't go over the top, however, and would be fun to pair with foie gras or filet mignon in addition to blue cheese and toasted walnuts.
