Review and Tasting
Sampled on 06/07/2011
Appearance:
Clear, dark golden amber with copper highlights.
Aroma:
Christmas cake, candied dried fruit nose with prune, walnut, marzipan, cedar wood, orange zest, anise and nutmeg spice aromas.
Taste:
Rich, luxurious, candied fruit, buttterscotch palate with freshly zested orange oils, almond, dried apricot, aniseed and delicately spicy oak (cinnamon and nutmeg) adding backbone.
Aftertaste:
Layers of fruit and floral flavours emerge in the still orangey zest finish.
