Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with a copper-gold glow and a mahogany edge, a warm, inviting hue from decades in oak.
Nose
Elegant and inviting, the nose opens to orchard fruit—ripe apples and pears—bright citrus notes of orange zest and lemon peel. A soft sweetness emerges, with vanilla and honey, while delicate oak spice lingers, folding into a refined, long finish.
Palate
Silky and refined, the palate unfolds with orchard fruits and citrus zest, lightly sweet yet never heavy. A gentle sweetness underpins a measured oak spice that lingers into a long, balanced finish.
Finish
A long, elegant finish where gentle sweetness lingers alongside bright citrus and orchard fruit, slowly giving way to warm, subtle oak spice.
