Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich, deep amber with mahogany depth and a burnished copper glow.
Nose
Rich and seductive, with mellow layers of alluring complexity. Ripe dark cherry and plum give way to stone fruit, gentian and a plume of smouldering tobacco, lifted by lilting notes of bramble, orange and cranberry.
Palate
Dense undertones of dark chocolate, tobacco and coca form an exquisite overture of flavour. A perfect counter comes in a crescendo of elegant plum and luxurious black cherry, enrobed in a swathe of velvet espresso.
Finish
An incredibly long, luxurious finish that lingers with dark chocolate, ripe plum and cherry, woven with tobacco and espresso. Velvet Sherry sweetness persists, framed by subtle oak and spice, tapering to a refined, cognac-like warmth that leaves a plush, raisiny finish on the palate.
