Tasting Notes: A Symphony of Flavour

  • Nose: An elegant bouquet of rose and dried botanicals balanced by toasted nuttiness. Rich sherry aromas of prunes and dark cacao chocolate are brightened by a hint of orange marmalade.
  • Palate: A complex profile of dried fruits and decadent chocolate, layered with warm spices, pepper, and aromatic wood. Subtle notes of tart apple and prunes add depth to the mid-palate.
  • Finish: Exceptionally long and refined, characterized by lingering spices, a gentle woody astringency, and a signature silken sweetness.
