Nose
An inviting mix of almond cream, fudge, chocolate nougat, confit violets, dried pear, fresh berries, cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, orange zest, herbaceous notes, wood glue, meringue, cranberry juice, almond oil, bitter chocolate, and a leathery side.
Palate
Very vinous with a thick, sticky mouthfeel. Spicy arrival, slightly astringent, with hints of caramel-coated nuts, gunpowder, blackberries, star anise, prosciutto, malt, chocolate qualities, and red peppercorns.
Finish
Medium to long, slightly dry, with cranberries, oak spices, tobacco, allspice, cinnamon, and lingering creamy chocolate.
