Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Deep golden amber with rich mahogany highlights and an elegant sheen.
Nose
Complex and inviting with ripe stone fruits, dried apricot, and spiced oak. Layers of honeyed cereal, subtle leather, and a hint of dark chocolate create depth.
Palate
Rich and full-bodied with caramel, dried fruit, and warming spices. Mature oak character integrates beautifully with notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, and a touch of licorice, creating excellent balance.
Finish
Long, satisfying finish with lingering oak spice, dark chocolate, and dried fruit. A touch of warmth remains with elegant oak tannins that persist beautifully.
