Review and Tasting

Sampled on 25/02/2012

Appearance:

Slight hazy, dark coppery golden amber with burnished copper highlights.

Aroma:

Pronounced orange marmalade with vanilla, floral honeysuckle, nougat and scratched old leather.

Taste:

Slightly sweet, honeyed palate with orange (zest and fruit) and toffee/caramel but some moderation of balance provided by dry spicy oak, stewed tea-like flavours and tannins.

Aftertaste:

Orange, pine and maple syrup oaky finish.
