The nose is effervescent and intricate with a medley of antique oak, apricot jam, fine licorice, and treacle tart. Soft baked apples, nutmeg, and tropical notes add to the overall complexity. A sweetness coats the mouth, with dates, sweet woodsmoke, bittersweet treacle toffee, and a hint of aromatic leafiness which then leads to a fruitiness and salinity reminiscent of a fine Palo Cortado. Soft tannins, subtle spice, and a continued mineralogy elongate the finish.
