Tasting Notes

Nose: A rich and inviting bouquet of dark dried fruits like fig and raisin, interwoven with caramelized brown sugar, vanilla bean, and a hint of warm baking spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg. A subtle undertone of oak char and a delicate floral note from the port influence emerge with time in the glass.

Palate: The entry is robust and full-bodied, delivering an immediate wave of dark cherry and blackberry jam, balanced by a powerful sweetness of maple syrup and dark chocolate. Mid-palate, notes of roasted nuts, toasted oak, and a pleasing peppery spice develop, complemented by the lingering influence of sweet port wine that adds a velvety texture.

Finish: Long, warm, and exceptionally smooth for its proof, the finish showcases lingering notes of port-soaked oak, tobacco leaf, and a gentle spice that fades into a delightful combination of dark fruit and crème brûlée. A pleasant dryness emerges at the very end, inviting another sip.
