There are only three kinds of wine you will never see in a Wine.Woot-Off: fortified wine, pruno, and the kind in a box with a nozzle. Beyond that, anything can happen. (And if you know a good pruno guy, we wouldn't mind having his number. Just in case or whatever.)
2005 Used Automobile Parts Dessert Wine 375ml 3-Pack
This special dessert wine has medium brilliant ruby color, with a brick red hue. The very rich dark chocolate profile is underscored by orange peel, Allspice, cocoa, tobacco and cherry pit with vanilla extract. The palate is sappy and generous with cassis, bourbon vanilla and over ripe plum.

"I present to you an authentic port style wine which I made with genuine Portuguese varietals grown in Amador County in the 1980s by my late friend Richard “Tim” Spencer of St. Amant winery who was an early pioneer and legend of California Port and mentored me throughout the making of this fine wine. He had made vintage, ruby and tawny ports – his 30 year old was epic. The result is what I believe to be a worthy tribute to a great man. I didn’t know it at the time, but the 2005 vintage was Tim’s last; it was an honor to have shared it with him."
