TASTING NOTES

Initial Impressions: Complex and intriguing, dark, compelling layers reveal themselves more and more over time in glass.

Aroma: Chocolate Truffles, Maduro Cigar, Pipe Tobacco & Humidor – there is an earthy and rich element in the nose, balanced by rounded fruits and a bright apricot / orange blossom floral note in the background.

Palate: Rich and expressive but with an underlying bright citrus note – layers of berries, cacao beans, caramelized orange and a hint of nuttiness evolve into subtle spice, leather and a hint of pipe tobacco on the close. Overall bold and complex that lingers on the palate.
