Tasting Notes
Amber reflections in the glass, stewed apples, some botrytis, liquorice and aniseed cookies. Good balance on the palate, the alcohol is well integrated, has strength and depth, finely rounded with a hint of silkiness, finishes with herbal savouriness. A sommelier's wine, with gastronomic appeal.
More about the tastingMatured on the skins with a clear hint of nuts, autumn leaves and forest floor, it is creamy on the palate with clear yeasty notes. Extract-rich fruit, mild acidity, the wood is noticeable but not forward. The alcohol is warming in the throat.
