Nose
Creamy. Leafy.
Palate
Rich, dark flavours. Lots of sherry. The body is light, soft and smooth.
Finish
Big, warming, soothing.
Comment
An especially rich sherryish bottling. Voluptuous. With the after-dinner chocs.

Nose
Firm, spicy and oaky. Night stocks, black fruits, cinnamon and nutmeg. Walking in the pines after rain.
Palate
A floral start with some soft fruits. Firm structure, toffee, oak/pine. Good balance.
Finish
Firms up. Lots of spice.
Comment
The same underlying fruity character as the distillery bottling but this is more structured and spicy. Take your pick, they're both very fine.
