Tasting Notes
Colour
Light mahogany natural colour
Nose
Opulent sherry perfume floods the glass, with dark raisin and fig entwined with orange zest and a touch of burnt sugar. Rich toasted oak and ginger spice frame the bouquet, while walnut and clove add complexity. A mahogany-amber warmth hints at the decadence within.
Palate
Full-bodied and refined, it offers mature oak and ginger spice, braided with lush raisin and dried fruit sweetness. The sherry cask influence delivers a velvety core, with a cocoa-tinged, mahogany finish that lingers warmly on the palate.
Finish
Long, warm finish dominated by sherry-soaked oak, with ginger spice and raisin sweetness. Rich notes of dark chocolate and leather linger, fading to a mahogany-tinged velvet.
