Final Thoughts
Fortis is a bold cask-strength expression matured in American oak red wine barrels. The nose is rich with blackberries, cocoa, vanilla, and toasted oak. On the palate, it delivers layers of dark fruits, espresso, baking spice, and toffee, with a powerful yet balanced structure. The finish is long, robust, and warming with lingering notes of oak and chocolate. Best enjoyed neat or with a drop of water to open its complexity, Fortis pairs superbly with barbecued ribs, dark chocolate cake, or aged cheddar.
