Tasting notes

Appearance: Bright, limpid amber. Nose: The aromas reveal a complex palette combining fruity notes of citrus and ripe pineapple, floral nuances of rose and lavender, with toasty wood, vanilla and caramel accents, complemented by hints of dried fruit and a few medicinal notes. Palate: The attack is sweet and semi-sweet, developing into a medium to full-bodied wine with flavours of chocolate, vanilla and toast, enhanced by spices and tobacco. The texture is somewhat astringent, with a noticeable alcoholic impact and marked acidity. The finish is long and well structured, maintaining the balance between sweetness and dryness, with lingering notes of dried fruit and aromatic herbs. Overall impression: A complex, well-balanced spirit that delivers on its olfactory promises despite a sometimes pronounced alcoholic integration.
