Martha's Rosé Port

Martha's Rosé Port

Deep reddish pink colour. Predominantly cherry on the nose. The cherry theme continued in the taste which was rich with an appropriate level of sweetness. We were informed that the grape variety elegance had been used to produce this distinctive port.

Dark brown with a hint of red. Rich nutty nose. Sweet and complex with bitter oak predominating over the sweetness of dried fruits. A refreshingly different example of this style.

Martha's Dry White

Pale yellow colour with a fruity nose. Moderately dry but just enough sugar to allow subtle grape flavours to join the usual spiciness associated with this style. This resulted in an interestingly balanced overall taste.
