Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber-gold with mahogany undertones and a coppery glow.
Nose
Opulent sherry nose with dark fruits - raisins, figs, and dried cherries - lifted by orange zest, toffee, and vanilla. Rich oak and subtle spice - cinnamon and nutmeg - add depth, while a refined almond note completes the bouquet. Inviting and luxurious.
Palate
Silky and opulent on the palate, dark-fruit sweetness unfolds—raisin, fig and dried apricot—along with cocoa, toffee and orange zest. Sherry influence weaves through velvet vanilla and warm oak spice, with a touch of almond. A refined, smooth texture leads to a long, elegant finish where fruit, spice and polished wood linger.
Finish
Silky, long finish echoing rich sherry influence: dark raisin and fig unfold, mingled with cocoa and subtle spice; oak warmth wraps the tongue, fading to a tobacco-tinged, coffee-kissed whisper.
