Nose Dried fruits ripen, then soften. Vanilla accompanies green apple hand in hand. Ginger, nutmeg and cinnamon create an ensemble in the background, with strong notes of polished oak and a depth of resinous, juicy oranges.
Palate The palate opens rich in wood spices, slowly showing all their viscosity. Wood smoke flits in and out.
Finish The heavier raisin and sultana flavours take over, meandering to a long full finish.
