Pre-order by August 2007, available by mid- September 2007.

Winexpert is pleased to announce that for a limited time, and by pre-order only, a
wonderfully delicious dessert wine in Selection Speciale - Chocolate Raspberry Port style.
Bursting with rich, intense flavours and aromas , this wine has traditional Port character
of warm, rounded cherry and plum , supported by a racy zing of bright raspberry, perfumed
and gently tart, giving way to luscious liquid chocolate, beguiling with dark, bittersweet
aromas of coffee and vanilla—it’s like an entire chocolaterie in a glass! Toasty hints of oak
guide the way to a long, rich finish.Wonderfully balanced, Chocolate Raspberry Port Style is
excellent with (or as) dessert, or served with toasted nuts or shortbread. Shared with family
and friends , it will warm the hearts—and the palates—of all of your guests. Excellent within
three months, this wine will age gorgeously—if you can keep any that long!
