Notes:	I know it is sacrilege to talk about non-Portuguese Port, but this one isn't that bad. At least is it a trmendously better than other Californian Ports that I have tasted. It started off with some good tasty fruit that wasn't too jammy. It didn't have any pepper just like all Californian Ports but it did finish off with some tannins. While this isn't your traditional tasting Portguese Port, it was very enjoyable.

Nice Californian Port
