This leans into dark, rounded flavours: dried fig and raisin meet espresso and cacao, then the palate brings fruitcake sweetness alongside orange peel and peppery spice. That contrast keeps the richness from feeling one-note, while the medium-long finish carries the cocoa, coffee and dark fruit through with warm oak. It’s a substantial, dessert-leaning direction, and the citrus and spice give it some welcome lift.
