Tasting Notes

Nose: A sophisticated bouquet of rich caramel and toasted vanilla bean immediately greets the senses, underlined by subtle hints of dried cherry and dark chocolate. A touch of baking spice, reminiscent of cinnamon and nutmeg, emerges with aeration.

Palate: The palate is surprisingly complex for a NAS expression, showcasing a bold, yet smooth, entry. Sweet corn and brown sugar notes are quickly followed by a medley of dried fruits, particularly fig and raisin. A delightful interplay of spiced oak and a gentle pepperiness provides structure, with a creamy texture that coats the mouth.

Finish: A medium to long finish, warming the palate with lingering notes of dark toffee, roasted nuts, and a pleasant oak char. A faint echo of stone fruit and a whisper of cinnamon spice gently fade, inviting another sip.
