Instead of the annual pair of socks or tie you gift your poor old dad every Father’s Day, we at Condé Nast House & Garden recommend you give him something a little warmer and stronger this year. A bottle of Flagstone Last Word Fortified Wine is the perfect way to say thank you to the man who has loved you unconditionally over the years.
From its warm ruby-red colour, spicy, toasty oak notes and dark fruit bouquet to its sweet eccentricity and gentlemanly character The Last Word has a Dad feel to it. Flagstone weaves the ethereal flavours and aromas of fermentation into the dense, complex and tannic structure of their handmade reds. Read a bit more about this unique wine below.
Colour
Bright red sapphire on the edges, following into dark intense ruby red.
Bouquet
Aromas of very ripe, dark red fruit, cocoa and toasty vanilla is wrapped up in the warm, spicy oak flavours of cinnamon and nutmeg.
Palate
The sweet red berry combines with tanginess of dried apricots and peaches, while the sweet plum fruit compote lingers and ends with a comforting, warm sensation.
