Nose
Deep and opulent, with intense aromas of dark raisins, dried figs, black cherries, bittersweet chocolate, espresso, polished oak, leather, incense, exotic spice, and hints of wood polish and sour berries. [2, 3, 4, 11, 17]
Palate
Full-bodied and powerful, yet balanced, offering rich flavors of blackberry compote, molasses, dark cocoa, sherry-soaked dried fruits, clove, cinnamon, nutmeg, toasted oak, and a gentle tannic grip. [2, 3, 4, 11, 17]
Finish
Exceptionally long and resonant, with lingering impressions of dark fruit, dry oak, warming spice, and an excellent balance of sweet and dry flavors. [2, 3, 4, 11, 17]
