Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with copper-gold highlights and a mahogany-tinged edge.
Nose
Opulent Moscatel perfume: honeyed peach, orange blossom, and grape must mingle with dried apricot and sultana. Lush vanilla, toasty oak, and gentle spice of cinnamon and clove drift through a citrus zest lift, creating a richly fruity bouquet that hints at dessert-wine sweetness tempered by Kavalan’s pristine polish.
Palate
Opulent and velvety on the palate, this Kavalan Solist Moscatel-Cask pours a lush rush of dried apricot, ripe mango and candied orange, with honeyed sweetness and almond cake. Rich toffee and vanilla mingle with warming oak, while a bright citrus lift keeps the sweetness in check. The finish is long and silky, draping the palate with spices and sultanas.
Finish
Opulent, long finish that lingers with honeyed Moscatel sweetness, unfolding orange marmalade, dried apricot and raisin, threaded by vanilla and gentle spice. Velvet, warming and persistent, fading to a soft oak glow.
