Nose
The nose opens with elegant winey notes, old oak, and polished wood. Aromas of cedar, a cigar box, and roasted hazelnuts. With water, sweeter notes emerge, primarily brown sugar, accompanied by hints of dusty shelves, an old leather armchair, and a touch of cinnamon.
Palate
A burst of ash and bold spice, with a kick of black pepper and jalapeño. Bright citrus notes of lemon and grapefruit balance the richness of dark chocolate, wood tannins, and oak. Roasted hazelnuts and macadamia, blood orange marmalade with hints of quince and tropical tots. With water, the profile turns fruitier, with salted prunes taking centre stage. The wood influence becomes more pronounced, while the spices mellow, revealing cinnamon, nasturtium, and almost a wisp of smoke.
Finish
The wood and jalapeño pepper notes linger for a while before easing, allowing the nutty flavors to shine through in the final moments.
