Ratafia is a name that covers a whole range of beverages - sweet, fortified wines. The name derives from a Latin phrase meaning to seal a deal - and these are the wines that were traditionally used to ratify treaties. This is a very unusual take on the style. Its fortified Chardonnay from South Africa. Its sweet, its got a bit of a kick and its also got the delicious flavours of honey and herbs but with a refreshing lime leaf balance. This is great served chilled at the end of a meal, maybe even over ice. Its a great alternative to the heavier after dinner treats.
