Appearance : Clear orange-coppery amber with burnished copper highlights
Aroma : Leathery vanilla impregnated stewed plums, cherry, kirsch, blackberries and vanilla with dried chili and cinnamon spice and cloves. Notes of cider apple fruit with floral violet, nutmeg, hazelnut, amaretto biscuit and freshly sawn oak.
Taste : Quite intense. Very well balanced palate, nice wood in the middle with sweet, mouth filling flavors that linger on to drying oak tannins, tobacco, quince, orange marmalade, almond, faint coffee and kirsch.
Aftertaste : Long dry finish. Light cinnamon and peppery spiced oak with tobacco.
