Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery-bronze sheen and a warm honey-gold glow.
Nose
Dark fruit and sherry aromas rise in a luxurious swirl: raisins, fig, and candied orange peel mingle with cocoa, almond, and a touch of leather. Oak spices like cinnamon and clove kiss the air, with a hint of espresso.
Palate
Opulent and velvety, the palate unfolds with a mosaic of dried fruit—raisin, fig, and date—bathed in dark chocolate, toffee and burnt sugar. Sherry depth coats the mouth, while spice—cinnamon, clove, nutmeg—and a whisper of orange zest play over polished oak. A silky, full-bodied texture leads to a long, warming finish with a faint, lingering smoke.
Finish
Long, luxurious finish that slowly reveals sherried dark fruit, espresso and dark chocolate, woven with toasted oak and subtle spice. The warmth lingers, fading to cocoa-dusted sweetness.
