Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep golden amber with sun-warmed copper highlights, a glossy, honeyed glow.
Nose
Dark, inviting nose of ripe red fruits—figs, raisins, and plum—awash in rich sherry. Toasted almond, cocoa, and caramel oak mingle with soft spices (cinnamon, clove), delivering a velvety, warm fragrance that hints at depth and refinement.
Palate
Silky and balanced on the palate, with rich sherried fruit, dark chocolate, and toasted nut notes underpinning a creamy texture. Gentle spice—cinnamon and clove—emerges against velvety oak, finishing warm, long, and with a lingering dried-fruit sweetness.
Finish
Long, luxurious finish with sherry-softened sweetness. Dried fig and raisin drift over cocoa and toasted oak, while cinnamon and clove provide a gentle spice that lingers. The warmth tapers to a velvety, contemplative fade.
