RAZZLE (Port) NV (375 ml)
RAZZLE - on the razzle or on the razz, British, informal. "Out enjoying oneself or celebrating, especially while drinking freely." Sometimes, things just fall in place. The obvious follow-up to a Port style wine named RIZZLE is…RAZZLE.
Port wine is a sweet, fortified wine with flavors of raspberry, blackberry, carmel, cinnamon, and chocolate sauce. Actual Port is only made in Portugal whereas port-style can be made elsewhere. Port pairs well with strong, blue-veined cheese (blue or Stilton), chocolate, nuts, dried fruits, and late nights while relaxing.

Northwest Wine Report - 89 points
This Port-style wine, made in a ruby style, is equally split between Touriga Nacional and Tinta Cão. The aromas offer notes of caramel, dried cherry, date, licorice, and woodspice. Sweet chocolate and cherry flavors follow. Vanilla and other barrel notes linger on the finish.
