Appearance:

Clear, blush gold with burnished copper highlights.

Aroma:

Red wine and armagnac-like with strawberry jam, fruit cake, cherries steeped in oily grappa. Water releases dried fruit and nuts.

Slightly sweet with pronounced wine and brandy notes, blackened raisony fruit cake, plum jam and faint whisper of struck match.

Aftertaste:

Brandy-like finish with stewed red fruit, fruit loaf and lingering red pepper corns.
