Cockburn's "Special Reserve" Porto

 

Essentially black hue with deep aubergine hue at the rim with a bouquet of lush brooding dark prune fruit with a sweet spicy presence above the rim, and nearly floral rose petal notes.

Palate--Intense sweetness on a bed of bold structured foundation with silky tannins, and gargantuan prune and uber ripe plum on a luxuriant mattress of intense fruit flavor with a surprisingly quick finish.

I snagged this at a state liquor store for $18 and all you can say about port wine is that done right it is extra-terrestrial.  I am pairing this with a slice of Harry and David's dark chocolate "something" (foreground of pic)  and it is going to be otherworldly!  At $18 you MUST raise a glass!
