Sherry leaves its mark. Rubber, dried currants, damp cellar.
Palate
Smooth and sweet. Elegant display of sherried notes : deep toffee, chocolate, candied chestnuts, figs. Touch of sulphur. Soft spices.
Finish
Lingering, chocolatey. Liquorice. Delicate spiciness (nutmeg). Tobacco leaves.
Comment
A classic sherry. Oak is perfectly integrated. So elegantly balanced.
