Tasting Notes
Colour
Dark amber with coppery-bronze glow and mahogany edges.
Nose
Rich, fruity and nutty, with raisins and prunes at the core, a hint of bitter dark chocolate, espresso beans and walnuts. A reassuring, Sherry-kissed depth that promises a generous, layered palate.
Palate
Elegantly rich and creamy. Sweet creme brulee and a touch of zesty orange peel. Sweet and spicy with a hint of nutmeg.
Finish
The finish opens to give flavours of juicy soaked maraschino cherries, delicious caramel shortcake with a coastal briny influence towards the end.
