Tasting Notes

Nose: Rich and complex, with prominent notes of old oak, toasted vanilla bean, dried dark fruits like cherry and fig, leather, and a hint of tobacco and spice.

Palate: A luscious and velvety entry revealing deep caramel, butterscotch, and crème brûlée, intertwined with dried apricot, baking spices (cinnamon, nutmeg), and a signature old-wood rancio character.

Finish: Long, warm, and exceptionally smooth, with lingering notes of dark chocolate, sweet oak char, worn leather, and a delicate spice that slowly fades into a memorable sweetness.
