Packaged in a gift tube, this late-bottled vintage Port is ideal for Father's Day or upcoming birthday presents. With five years ageing already, this is one to enjoy now, offering flavours of dried figs, prunes, orange peel and sweet baking spices, with just enough fruit weight to carry the warming alcohol. Available online only.
