Tasting Notes
Colour
Pale straw gold with a delicate, sunlit glow; a whisper of pale amber at the rim.
Nose
Delicate and perfumed, Rosebank opens with citrus blossom, crisp green apple, pear and lemon zest, lightly honeyed. Waxy, silky textures mingle with soft oak, while a subtle sherry note brings dried fruit, almond and a whisper of cocoa, finishing with orchard-fresh elegance and quiet depth.
Palate
A delicate, airy palate of crisp orchard fruits, green apple and pear, laced with lemon zest and a touch of honey. Subtle floral notes mingle with dried-fruit and almond from the sherry cask, accompanied by a gentle spice that lingers. Silky texture, softly warming, leading to a refined, medium finish.
Finish
Silky, medium-long finish with a warm sherry hug—the fruit-laden sweetness of orchard apples and citrus lingering alongside soft malt. A subtle nutty, oak-driven fade leaves a fragrant, polished dryness.
