Australians collectively call sweet and fortified wines 'stickies', and that's a perfect word for this drop. It's like Christmas in a glass, with its savoury-sweet notes of raisins, espresso, prunes, nuts and treacle. Rich, layered and complex, it has a lovely freshness running through to the finish. This is one to bring out with the tin of chocolates. Available from 14 November.
