Appearance
Brilliant, deep amber with burgundy accents.
Aromatics
The nose is wonderfully intense offering scents of caramel and honey with brown baking spices, oak, roasted nuts, toffee, and charred sugar.
Flavor
The palate echoes the nose delivering a lush caramel driven core with a generous dose of acidity and toasted spices that give a complex dry impression that finished quite dry with accents of oak and allspice.
Intensity & Texture
Medium to full-bodied with great length and ideal balance thanks to the vibrant spice notes and acidity.
