Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery hues and mahogany depth, a warm bronze glow.
Nose
Nutty and refined, this nose offers almond and walnut with dried fig and raisin, a bright kiss of orange zest and toffee. Amontillado sherry influence adds tobacco, leather, and polished oak, while a subtle spice glow lingers, hinting at a vault-like, elegant maturation.
Palate
Silky and full-bodied, the palate opens with toasted almond, dried fig and prune, layered with toffee and a whisper of orange zest. Nutty Amontillado sherry threads through caramel oak, revealing raisin, cocoa and spice. A warm, lingering sweetness balanced by subtle saline notes and elegant tannin, a refined finish that carries the cask influence.
Finish
Long, refined finish dominated by Amontillado's nutty richness: almond and hazelnut mingle with dried fig and orange zest, a kiss of cocoa and toffee, and a wisp of spice and oak that slowly fades to a dry, polished finale.
