Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery highlights and a mahogany glow.
Nose
Opulent nose of salted caramel over lush American oak, with dark forest fruits—blackberry, plum, fig—unfolding into melted dark chocolate and cacao nibs. Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry lend toffee, dried-fruit sweetness, and a glossy vanilla edge. Velvet, multi-layered, inviting a long, decadent first impression.
Palate
Silky and full-bodied, the palate opens with salted caramel braided through dark forest fruits—blackberry and plum with a hint of cherry—over a cocoa-kissed core. American oak lends vanilla-spice warmth, while the sherry finish lingers with refined sweetness and a long, elegant finish.
Finish
An extended, velvety finish that lingers with salted caramel and dark forest fruit, touched by melted dark chocolate. The sherry cask influence threads through the finale, with toasted oak spice warming the palate and a lasting, wine-kissed glow.
