Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Rich mahogany with deep copper highlights and excellent viscosity.
Nose
Rich dried fruit aromatics with notes of raisins and figs, followed by warming spice, dark chocolate, and a hint of toasted wood. The sherry influence brings Christmas cake and toffee sweetness.
Palate
Full-bodied and luxurious with dark fruit flavors, cocoa, cinnamon, and a velvety texture. The sherry cask finish adds layers of dried fruit complexity and gentle tannins balanced by sweetness.
Finish
Long, warming finish with lingering spice, dark chocolate notes, and a subtle drying influence from the oak.
