Nose

Malty and oaky. Wet leaves, damp soil. A musty note. On time, a creamy note\rof hazelnut fudge.

Palate

Silky. Sweet and mellow. Oak is better integrated than on the nose. Citrussy. Marmalade. Buttery. Shortbread. Drying on spices. Candied ginger. Hint of walnut.

Finish

Warm, dry and spicy.

Comment

The nose is slightly austere but the palate delivers rich fruity flavours elegantly framed by oak.
