William Hinton Four Cask Edition
Raisin, dried fruit and a distinct wine-y, Port-like note run through this agricole from William Hinton in Madeira. At 45% it's fruity with a citrus edge, but people are lukewarm: some find it pleasantly soft with a decent aftertaste, others hit a slightly sharp, faintly bitter finish. One taster summed it up as "short but not unpleasant" — not a wow, not a dud.
The community says- Soft mouthfeel
