Many of you love Mazza Bastardo as a dry rosé - now meet the Bastardo as a vintage port style, sweet dessert wine.

Deepish, bright youthful red colour with a purple tint.  

The aroma is fresh and youthful, raspberry and red cherry aromas, with a subtle touch of liquorice from very good fortifying spirit.

A rich mouthful of black cherries, caramelised figs and allspice.  The palate is sweet and only light to medium-bodied, with attractive flavour and well-balanced tannins. 

Really delicious right now but it could also age very well.  A very elegant vintage port style.  The perfect finish to any special occasion!
