Tasting notes

Appearance: Bright amber, perfect clarity. Nose: The aromas reveal a complex palette dominated by vanilla and sweet spices, accompanied by notes of dried fruit, honey and woody oak nuances, with hints of ripe tropical fruit. Palate: The attack is full-bodied with a marked alcoholic presence, developing flavours of cooked fruit, sweet spices and vanilla on a velvety texture. However, according to some assessments, the wine is not well integrated, with aromatic elements struggling to blend together. The finish lingers on woody, herbaceous and spicy notes, with a persistence that varies according to perception. Overall impression: A rich, expressive spirit, combining intensity, complexity and length, with a solid structure and generosity that bear witness to fine ageing, despite a slight tension in the aromatic integration.
