The Tasting Notes
Colour
Dark copper gold.
Nose
Sweet home baking aromas; brown sugars; vanilla cake dough, butterscotch, with notes of spiced caramelized bananas.
Taste
Incredibly rich and complex, spicy and peppery, yet with fruity notes of figs, dates and cinnamon. The finish progresses through subtle traces of autumn spices to the sweet tinges of bitter chocolate and honeycomb toffee with the tannins lingering long in the mouth.
