Review and Tasting

Sampled on 25/06/2021

Appearance:

Clear, deep amber with burnished copper highlights.

Aroma:

Toffee apple with cinnamon spice, dark chocolate, caramel, dried fruit, and apple pie.

Taste:

Medium to full-bodied with assertive dry woody tannins softened by buttery shortcake and caramel with bitter chocolate, toffee, old leather and cigar leaf. Faint white wine/vermouth notes.

Aftertaste:

Dry with a burnt note and lingering oaky tannins and cinnamon spice.

Overall:

Dried by oak tannins from extended tropical barrel ageing.
