TASTE & AROMA
Very forward aromas of Madagascan vanilla pods, rich toasted American oak, blackberry jam, raisins, caramel- ised fig, raw sugar and over ripe plums. On the palate Fortis is rich and full bodied, upfront vanillin, quince paste, Muscadelle raisins, chocolate ganache, cinnamon and baked banana bread.
