Tasting notes
Notes of fresh flowers, winter spices and oak blended with sweet sherry and dried fruit.
Rich, full-bodied with a smooth texture; and toffee at first followed by subtle notes of caramel and vanilla, dried fruit and leather.
Long and dry, hints of fruit and spicy oak lead to a warm finish.
