Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich golden amber with coppery shimmer and a wine-warm, rosé-hued edge.
Nose
French wine-cask maturation infuses a lush perfume: ripe red berries, plum and fig, woven with wine-spice and velvety oak. Hints of dark chocolate, vanilla and leather deepen the core, while a delicate Islay maritime whisper keeps it buoyant and refined.
Palate
Silky, full-bodied palate infused with red-wine nuance: raspberry, blackberry and plum mingle with grape-skin tannins. Rich vanilla sweetness and cocoa drift through spice notes of clove and cinnamon, while a maritime brightness lingers, concluding with a warm, lingering finish.
Finish
Silky and remarkably long, the finish unfurls a warm wave of red fruit from the wine-cask influence—plum and cherry mingled with spice and a hint of cocoa. Tannins linger, giving a refined grip before easing into toasted oak and subtle sea-salt nuance, leaving a clean, coastal warmth that slowly fades.
