Nose
A big enveloping hug of old school, oxidative sherry with notes of aged sherry vinegar, bitter chocolate, damp earthen floored dunnage, pipe tobacco, hessian, lamp oil, game meats and Dundee cake. Strong sherry aromas, raisins, dried fruits, dark berries, chocolate, caramel, a light smoky note, and a salty breeze.
Palate
Divine, with old salty solera wood, bitter herbal essences, cumin powder, rye bread, ginger and nibbling tannins. Powerful, slightly tart, with dried fruits, pepper, sweetish, nuts, caramel, and some chocolate.
Finish
A nice strong and very long finish, with sherry aromas clearly present, very spicy and yet slightly sweet with nuts or chocolate.
