Mount Pleasant Winery
NV Vignoles
Light gold color. Aromas and flavors of white grape jam, mandarin orange, daffodil, heirloom apple, peach jam, and butter with a satiny, crisp, off-dry light-to-medium body and a smooth, interesting, medium-length finish conveying elements of apricot sorbet and buttercream with no oak flavor. A bold and juicy Vignoles with a charming rustic edge.

2008 10 Year Old Port Meunch
Golden amber color. Aromas of brown sugar, blended rum, candied orange, spice cake, and crystalized ginger with a round, vibrant, fruity sweet medium body and a warming, delightful, medium-long salted nuts, caramel-covered bananas, apricot pastry, and spiced pineapple finish. An after-dinner wine for rum lovers; a distinctive and delicious treat.

Mount Pleasant Winery
2012 Vintage Port Augusta, Missouri
Black garnet color. Aromas and flavors of dark chocolate, roasted nuts, molasses cake with baked raisins, balsamic glaze, and black licorice with a round, sweet light-to-medium body and a smooth, appealing, medium-length finish displaying accents of king cake, pot still rum, and dried figs with no oak flavor. A solid Port-style wine that will pair well with chocolates or cheeses.
