Tasting Notes
Colour
Luxuriously warm amber-gold with coppery undertones.
Nose
An ethereal bouquet of white florals—orange blossom, honeysuckle—with pear and lemon zest. Silky vanilla, almond paste and a drizzle of honey ride atop gentle grain sweetness, while a whisper of oak lends quiet warmth. Delicate, refined and inviting, it hints at years of grace.
Palate
Silky and mouth-coating, it unravels with honeyed vanilla, rich toffee, and creamy custard. Pear and golden apple weave through a smooth, pastry-sweet center, while hints of citrus zest keep it bright. Subtle spice—white pepper and a touch of cinnamon—nudges the mid-palate. The finish extends gracefully, with toasted almond, waxy oak, and a persistent, refined sweetness that lingers beautifully.
Finish
Perfumed, enduring finish with graceful sweetness and quiet spice. A long, satin tail lingers with vanilla, honey, dried orchard fruit and citrus zest, entwined with almond. Subtle waxy richness and cedar-tinged oak drift in, fading to a refined, perfumed whisper.
