2005 Fireside
Port-Style Wine, Oregon
Bottle, to go: $21 - Case price: $226.80
This ruby ‘port-style' wine was made in the traditional method of harvesting and fermenting overly ripe grapes and stopping fermentation mid way by adding neutral grape spirits, leaving the wine high in sugar as well as alcohol. The 2005 Fireside has aromas of raisins, figs, brown sugar and caramel. Due to its 20% alcohol and high residual sugar, it is an age worthy wine that will gain complexity and mellow over the next decade.
