Tasting Notes:
Rich aromas of dark fruits, chocolate, roasted nuts and sweet sherry rise from the glass alongside hints of citrus and polished oak. The palate is full-bodied and layered with notes of dried cherries, cacao, caramel, figs and warming spice balanced by elegant Linkwood orchard fruit character. The finish is long and decadent, carrying lingering dark chocolate, oak spice and sweet sherried richness with remarkable balance and structure.
