Nose
Rich and inviting aroma, with prominent notes of ripe orchard fruits like apples and pears. A touch of vanilla and subtle oak spice add complexity.
Palate
Full-bodied and smooth texture, with the fruity flavours from the nose carried over to the palate. The sweetness of the fruit is balanced by a gentle warmth and a hint of spice.
Finish
Fruit flavours fading gradually, leaving a pleasant warmth and a touch of oak on the finish.
