Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with burnished copper and mahogany undertones, a warm, honeyed bronze glow.
Nose
Intense and tantalizing, the nose opens with citrus zest, followed by sherry notes, dried fruits and vanilla, with subtle caramel and warm oak adding elegance and depth.
Palate
Silky, intensely layered, the palate opens with bright citrus zest and whisky-warmed sweetness, then unfolds into sherry-tinged dried fruits, vanilla, and caramel. The wheated character lends creamy depth, finishing long, elegant, and softly spiced with refined oak.
Finish
A long, elegant finish that lingers with bright citrus zest, sherry-softened dried fruits and vanilla, fading into a refined, warm echo of oak.
