The glossy coppery-topaz colour of this wine is exactly the type of sparkly-type of thing that lures women like me into all sorts of potentially un-ladylike activity. It smells like that glorious mélange of mixed peel, currants, raisins and sultanas soaking in masses of melted butter and booze that is ones traditional Christmas cake batter, with a toffee apple edge to it. Fresh, luxuriously balanced sweetness and caramelized characters on the finish – it’s a seriously sexy sweet treat.
