Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber-gold with coppery highlights and mahogany undertones.
Nose
Opulent sherry-driven aroma with dried fruit depth—ripe fig, prune and raisin mingle with caramelized toffee and walnut. Hints of orange zest, vanilla, and gentle spice (cinnamon, clove) drift through velvety oak, while a warm sherry glow lingers.
Palate
On the palate it unfolds with a velvety, full-bodied profile, where rich dried fruits—prune, fig, raisin—muse with sherry sweetness. Caramel and toasty toffee mingle with delicate spice—cinnamon, clove, a hint of nutmeg—supported by integrated oak. The octave's wood interaction lends a silky warmth and a long, chewy, sherry-tinged finish.
Finish
Long, warming finish with lingering sherry warmth. Dried fruit and caramel persist, with gentle spice, as a velvety oak echo fades to a warm, sweet-spiced hush.
