Let me open this review by saying that I am not a big drinker of fortified wines, however Farmer’s Port from Farmer’s Daughter Wines is sending me on a course to discover more.
Farmer’s Port is not overly sweet or alcoholic, like many wines from the mudgee region it bursts onto the palate with strong fruit flavors, specifically raisins and black currant. The tastes linger on for a long time, before your mouth warms nicely from the alcohol.
This is the first fortified wine I can say I truly enjoyed, more experienced drinkers have given me the thumbs up however, stating that it is a fine drop of port indeed. The experience can be summed up very simply: deliciously fruity and very smooth.
Score: 9/10
Would I buy this wine again?
At $25 a bottle, I think there is excellent value to be had. It is a lovely after dinner treat, and I do beleive I shall be ordering several more bottles.
