Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich amber with coppery highlights and a warm honey-gold glow.
Nose
Opulent and spice-laden, this nose unfolds with generous cinnamon and nutmeg mingling with vanilla. Hints of orange zest and red apple brighten the frame, while plum and caramel deepen the fruit, layered with a subtle nutty edge. A warm, polished aromatic core that promises complexity.
Palate
Opulent and full-bodied, it coats the palate with cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla, then unfolds orange zest, red apple and plum drifted with caramel. Sherry depth adds dark fruit and toasted nuts, while subtle oak supports a long, warming finish laced with spice.
Finish
Rich, polished and long, the finish lingers with cinnamon and nutmeg, entwined with vanilla. Orange zest, red apple and plum emerge, tempered by caramel sweetness as spices linger, finishing with a delicate note of toasted nuts.
