Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich amber-gold with sunlit honey and bronze undertones.
Nose
Opens with gilded sweetness: honeyed apricot and candied peach mingle with orange marmalade, layered over vanilla oak and roasted almond. Subtle buttered pastry and creme brulee notes echo the Sauternes cask finish, while a kiss of citrus zest adds lift. Elegant, liqueur-like richness with a refined, dessert-wine warmth.
Palate
Silky, honeyed and lush, it coats the palate with apricot, peach and orange marmalade, punctuated by tropical fruit notes. Creamy toffee, vanilla and saffron mingle with warm oak and a touch of almond. Balanced sweetness carries through a long, velvety finish, leaving lingering fruit and spice.
Finish
Long, velvety finish of dessert-wine sweetness, with honeyed apricot, marmalade and peach, and delicate botrytized fruit notes with almond. Fading spice and toasted oak lift the sweetness, leaving a warm kiss of vanilla and a refined, lingering finish.
