Nose
Powerful aromas of sweet pears and citrus fruits are balanced with the full fragrance of autumn flowers. Elegant aromas of sweet vanilla and dry oak are enhanced with subtle notes of sherry and smoke.
Palate
Rich, Full, deep fruity flavours with a subtle smokiness. Sumptuous sweet orange and marmalade flavours infused with fresh pears burst across the tongue. A rich medley of spices and a nuttiness of hazelnuts have a mouth-filling intensity and then the final warmth from hints of masculine smokiness.
Finish
Dry and slightly spicy.
