Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep copper-amber with mahogany undertones and a warm, wine-dark glow.
Nose
Aromas open with lush dark fruit and ripe apricot, tempered by caramelised raisins. Subtle hints of cedar and toasted spice weave through the richness, while a warm, woody backbone from the Cabernet Sauvignon casks lends depth and character.
Palate
Silky, medium-full palate of dark fruits—plum, blackberry and apricot—woven with caramelised raisin. Cabernet cask maturity delivers wine-dark sweetness, while bold woody spice and toasted oak provide structure, finishing warm, lingering and refined.
Finish
Long, wine-forward finish with dark plum and black cherry evolving into apricot and caramelized raisin sweetness. Cabernet-soaked tannins and cocoa-spice create a warm, oak-kissed echo that lingers, slowly fading to velvety fruit and subtle wood.
