Platinum - Best in Show: Best Value Sweet Fortified Black tea, celery, and toasted marshmallow aromatics. The palate offers roast hazelnut and walnut kernel flavours, plus cleansing acidity There's a flourish of caramel and orange on the long, toasty finish. Such incredible freshness for such a sweet wine! Staggering value.
