Maltiply Tasting Profile

Nose: A sherry grenade with notes of wet carpet, leather, tobacco, damp leaves, and burnt caramel. Also, rich stewed apple, festive spices, citrus, red apple, light chocolate, raspberry, and a hint of cocoa coffee.
Palate: Distinctive dryness with an oily texture. Intense flavors of fig, dark chocolate, earthy leather, bitter cocoa, forest fruits, toasted hazelnuts, and black pepper.
Finish: Long and spicy with an astringent, dry character, followed by a slight fruity sweetness. Lingering notes of summer berries, dried cherry, and charred oak, with a touch of citrus peel.

The long, spicy finish has a dry, astringent edge, then gives way to a little fruity sweetness. Summer berries and dried cherry leave it with a softer final note.

Black pepper and earthy leather give this a firm, dry edge, while fig and forest fruits bring sweetness against it. That contrast appeals to me, though the astringent finish sounds like it could dominate the lingering berry and dried-cherry notes.
