Tasting Notes
Colour
Sun-warmed honey-gold with amber highlights and a coppery glow.
Nose
Muscat-driven perfume of honeyed orchard fruit, with raisin and sultana richness, ripe peach and apricot. Creamy vanilla and almond echo in the background, edged by toffee and a whisper of oak, while a subtle floral lift (orange blossom) brightens the aroma.
Palate
Silky, full-bodied palate with honeyed Muscat sweetness—ripe apricot, sultana and peach folded into vanilla and toffee. Subtle oak spice weaves through, a whisper of cinnamon, while a grapey fruitiness lingers into a warm, gently drying finish with refined fruit and vanilla.
Finish
Muscat cask finish delivers a honeyed, grapey sweetness that lingers with raisins, apricot and sultana, tempered by vanilla, toasted oak and a whisper of spice. The sweetness remains long and gently perfumed, closing in a warm, dessert-like fade with elegant precision.
