Tasting Notes: This is how the Kilchoman Vintage 2013 Port Quarter Cask #488A #7/10 tastes
Nose: strong aromas of red fruits, combined with caramel and dark chocolate - strong peat smoke above all
Palate: mouth-filling - again the ripe ones red fruits, the port wine is clearly recognizable - then smoky notes of peat fire follow, behind them the chocolate again
Finish: long in the peaty-fruity finish - the pleasant fruity port wine sweetness is wearing the exit
