• Nose: The first encounter promises to be captivating. Expect an aroma filled with layers of complexity. Hints of grapefruit zest, antique oak, vanilla, melon, and wood smoke might emerge, beautifully complemented by notes of nutmeg, ripe plum, and almond.

• Palate: The first sip is likely to be a revelation. Imagine a luxuriously smooth texture, giving way to a symphony of flavors dominated by peach and apple. Wood spice with hints of ginger and cloves intertwine with the sweetness of the fruit notes. The influence of the sherry casks is evident in the subtle hints of sweet wood smoke and Yuzu.
