Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery shimmer and a warm honey-gold glow.
Nose
Subtly floral and honeyed, with pale orchard fruits and a creamy malt character. Dried apricot and almonds emerge beneath vanilla and toffee notes, while soft oak and a whisper of spice lend elegance. A cool, alpine citrus zest lingers, adding a refined, lingering freshness to the aroma.
Palate
Silky and honeyed, the palate unfolds with malt-forward richness. Orchard fruit and citrus lift the sweetness, while vanilla and delicate spice add depth. Gentle oak lends structure without heaviness, finishing long, crisp, and subtly nutty.
Finish
Silky and lingering, the finish pours honeyed warmth across the palate, with notes of dried apricot and almond from the sherry influence. It fades into warm oak and gentle malt spice, leaving a polished, toasted sweetness that clings softly and invites the next sip.
