Deep amber with rich mahogany depth and coppery highlights, a warm, sunlit glow.
Nose
Opulent aromas of dried fruit, dark chocolate, and spiced oak rise from the glass, offering a warm, inviting sherried depth that promises luxurious balance.
Palate
Luxuriously rounded and concentrated, the palate delivers caramel sweetness with ripe figs and toasted nuts, touched by cinnamon and bright orange zest; sherry-cask richness adds depth and velvety spice.

Subtle orange zest threads through as the sherry influence persists, leaving a velvety oak warmth that coats the mouth and gradually fades to dark chocolate and a final, bittersweet finesse.
