THE DRESS
Coppery amber with mahogany hues.
THE NOSE
Elegant and complex, opening with candied fruit aromas of orange, cherry and prune, blending with notes of warm pastry. Licorice, spices and rancio follow. The second nose presents the same notes as the first, while adding those of old oak, spicy vanilla, dried coconut and sweet spices.
IN THE MOUTH
Balanced structure, long, powerful and very round, with a honeyed texture that coats the palate. The aromatic notes perceived in the bouquet are echoed on the palate. Subtle notes of white fruit follow, with ripe plum and pear blending perfectly with orange jam and mellow oak notes. Finally, notes of vanilla, cocoa and soft caramel gradually take hold, leading to a long finish with hints of rancio and cigar box.
ASSOCIATIONS
