- Nose
- Dessert in a glass. Stewed plums with thick orange marmalade topped with spun brown sugar. Dark chocolate gateaux joins morello cherries steeped in syrup. Hazelnut praline complements notes of vanilla.
- Palate
- Luxurious black currant coulis layered over stewed rhubarb with flavours of delicately malted chocolate. In time, freshly roasted coffee beans and soft wood tannins offer richer undertones.
- Finish
- Refined and lingering. Hints of aged leather with a gentle nutty edge slowly fade to mature oak nuances.
