Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber-gold with coppery bronze highlights.
Nose
Briny wax, citrus zest and orchard fruit open, with sherry-finished depth. Dried fig and raisin mingle with toasted almond, vanilla and a whisper of cocoa over polished oak. A marine, elegant perfume—rich, poised and slowly unfolding.
Palate
Silky and full on the palate, with honeyed sweetness and waxy citrus. Dried fruits—prune, fig, raisin—mingle with warm spice, toasted almond and cocoa. Sherry-cask depth brings velvety oak, caramel, and a long, refined finish of orange zest, sea-salt, and lingering fruitcake notes.
Finish
Long, elegant finish where sherry-softened fruit and orange zest give way to dark chocolate and plum, tapering to a silky wax, with a coastal saltiness and quiet oak spice that linger gracefully.
