Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Rich mahogany with auburn reflections, deep and inviting.
Nose
Dried fruits dominate—raisins, figs, and dates—layered with warm spice, cocoa, and toasted oak. A subtle nuttiness develops, reminiscent of almonds and hazelnuts.
Palate
Full-bodied with rich dried fruit character, chocolate, and subtle leather notes. The sherry influence provides depth, balanced by warming spice and a hint of dried orange peel.
Finish
Long, warming finish with lingering chocolate, dried fruit, and gentle oak tannins that gradually fade.
