Tasting Notes

Official Tasting Notes

Colour: Rose tinted honey

Nose: Sultanas, peach crumble, vanilla and red apple assault your nose and stay there for a good long time before it gentles into sweet Italian dessert wine, it cries out for Cantucci.

Palate: So soft and so much vanilla, sweet and slightly bitter with a most delightful stone fruit fruitiness. A touch of charred oak.

Finish: So full, like a mouth full of dried fruit and sweet red wine with well rounded spices, it lingers far longer than it has any right to. A perfect winter Dram for by the fire.
