Tasting Note by The Producer
Nose
Peppery, with an intriguing balance of dried spices, stone fruits, fresh nectarines, chocolate truffles, and Seville orange marmalade.
Palate
Relaxes slowly to reveal long-lasting butterscotch, marzipan, mangoes, and a hint of vanilla essence.
Finish
Rich sherry pervades – raisins and spice.
