Nose

Subtle aromas of moist raisinated and plumy fruitcake. Initially subdued before the luscious sherry notes kick in. The aromas develop well with hints of herbs and green nuts.

Palate

As subdued as the nose. Too subtle? Straightforward with juicy, homogenous sherry character and building, lightly bitter, chocolaty tannins.\n

Finish

Short, sharp and quite citric. Pleasantly mouth-watering though with a liquorice and dark chocolate after-taste.\n

Comment

It’s all about the sherry cask. No blemishes, but simple and ultimately for me, a little unexciting.
