Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Deep amber with copper highlights; full-bodied appearance, slow thick legs
Nose
Rich dried fruits — fig, date, raisin — with dark chocolate, orange marmalade, and Christmas cake spice. Deeper sherry influence than the 12yo, with hints of leather and old wood
Palate
Luxuriously rich. Christmas cake with dried fruit, dark toffee, chocolate-covered orange, walnut, and a pronounced sherry character. More complexity and depth than the 12yo with a heavier mouthfeel
Finish
Long finish with persistent sherry warmth, chocolate, and spice. Dried fruit and walnut linger. Oak tannins provide structure without bitterness
