Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery highlights and a mahogany edge, a warm, sun-kissed hue that speaks of sherry maturation.
Nose
Dark dried fruits—fig, raisin, and plum—lead the nose, brightened by sherry's molasses and vanilla. Subtle cocoa, toasted almond, and spices like cinnamon and clove unfold, while polished oak and a whisper of leather lend warm, refined depth.
Palate
Silky and medium-bodied, this eight-year-old delivers sherried richness with raisin and fig, folded into toffee and dark chocolate. A thread of clove and cinnamon, brightened by citrus zest, rests on subtle oak. The palate finishes smooth, with cocoa, warm spices, and a refined, lingering sweetness.
Finish
Silky, lingering finish coats the palate with sherry-soaked fruit—raisin, fig and prune—alongside velvety cacao, toasted almond, and a whisper of spice. Warm oak threads through, slowly fading and inviting the next refined sip.
