Tasting Notes
"Dry wood and fruit spices greet the nose, with red stones fruits mingling with nuts and sherry. Slight grassy notes and a tinge of smoke rise at the back of the nose, holding firm as the nose warms. On the palate oils leap forward but dry intensely quickly, the stone fruits growing into cherry and nectarines. This is followed by sherry buds and more grass with chocolate-covered nuts creeping through the back end. Sherry grasses and spices caress the mouth on the finish holding for a short time before fading."
