Underlying this, a pleasant oak char emerges, intertwined with lighter notes of dried apricot and a whisper of baking spice, perhaps a touch of cinnamon or nutmeg. There's an ethereal fruitiness, like dried cherry, that suggests its age, despite being NAS.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e The palate arrives with a smooth, medium-bodied texture. The sweetness from the nose translates into a gentle warmth, showcasing prominent vanilla and candied orange peel. The oak presence is well-integrated, providing a backbone of dried wood and a subtle spice, leaning towards white pepper and a touch of roasted nuts. A faint earthiness or tobacco leaf note occasionally surfaces, adding complexity.
