Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich, deep amber-gold with a warm copper glow and honey-bronze undertones.
Nose
Silky and luxurious, this nose opens with vanilla pod and almond cream, draped over velvety grain. Honeyed pear and baked apple mingle with dried fruit, crème brûlée, and a whisper of toffee. Subtle oak and soft spice harmonize with a lift of citrus, delivering a Gucci-dress, silk-like aroma that is polished, refined, and utterly inviting.
Palate
Silk-smooth and utterly luxurious on the palate, with a creamy, waxy mouthfeel. Vanilla custard, honeyed toffee and almond paste unfold alongside orchard fruits and orange zest. Rich coconut and dried apricot drift through a caramel-oak spine, with a whisper of spice. Long, indulgent and warm, leaving a velvet finish that echoes silk and couture.
Finish
Silky and expansive, the finish cloaks the palate in velvet luxury. Creamy vanilla and toffee mingle with toasted oak, unfurling into dried fruits and a soft sherry kiss. Spices emerge and recede, then a warm honeyed sweetness lingers—an enduring, couture-like glow that coats the mouth like silk.
