Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with copper-gold shimmer, a warm, sunlit glow in the glass.
Nose
Polished orchard fruits lead the nose—ripe pear and golden apple—softened by vanilla cream and honey. Dried apricot and almond mingle with gentle spice, while toasted oak frames the aroma. A delicate sherry sweetness adds depth and a quiet, elegant finish.
Palate
On the palate, orchard fruits—pear and apple—lead with gentle malt and creamy vanilla. Subtle spice unfurls—white pepper with a touch of clove—while oak provides quiet structure. A delicate nutty edge and a whisper of dried fruit deepen the profile, finishing long, warm and balanced with caramel-malt sweetness and a subtle savory note.
Finish
Long, refined and quietly warming, the finish drifts with silky oak, a hint of spice, and a lingering caramel-vanilla sweetness that fades to a soft, polished afterglow.
