Forty Creek Port Wood Reserve, 45% abv

Of course one gets a prominent taste of port in a port wood finish. but beneath that I tasted blackberries and crème de cacao with a mild pepper finish. One of the better Canadians that I have tasted.

Spicy oils, grasses, dry fruit cake greet the nose in a pleasant somewhat understated fashion. Soft light ginger dominates the palate again in an understated way. It is "there" but almost too softly. Still a very pleasant sipping dram for those of a lighter persuasion.
