Nose
Chunky Oloroso, some Armagnac-esque aged character. Hints of sultana, incense, dusty oak, heather, wood smoke, walnut and hazelnut along with freshening citrus notes.
Palate
Fresher and more citric. Holds the mature sherry in check. Lightly treacly, with dried fruit, cinnamon, violet tinged incense and wood smoke.
Finish
Good length with grain coming through. A little bittering from the oak.
Comment
You could say it’s a one-dimensional sherry-heavy blend, but it has some lovely maturity.
