Wine Tasting: Thistle Gate Tartan Chambourcin Port


Name: Thistle Gate Tartan
Varietal:Chambourcin Port
Region:Scottsville, VA
Country:United States

Wine Notes: "This Port-style wine is made from late harvest Chambourcin grapes and fortified with brandy that was distilled from estate grown Chambourcin wine. Tartan embodies cherry flavors, smokey essence and subtle vanilla notes. Tartan is aged in whiskey barrels for 3 years. 18% alcohol. Governor Cup winner."
My Review: This port smelled like brandy and cinnamon. The scent reminded me of Fireball. It had a light cinnamon and chocolate taste. I did not try this with food.
