Essence of St. Croix 2018~ 375 ml.
Our Vineyard Reserve St.Croix is triple fermented to enhance different notes of flavor and aged 3 years in oak barrels to achieve the smooth, creamy, smoky flavor similar to a Port style wine. A typical PORT can have brandy added to it for higher alcohol, but we use this triple fermentation process to bring the alcohol higher.
