Tasting Notes

Nose

Spicy, oaky, honeyed — mandarin, toffee apple. Raisins, apricots, figs. Flamed orange rind, cinnamon and cloves. The Marsala finishing adds a distinctly Sicilian warmth.

Palate

Chocolate and nut — almond, hazelnut. Butterscotch, vanilla, oak. The Marsala finishing adds a nutty, oxidative warmth quite different from sherry or port. At 50%, genuine body.

Finish

Medium — berry fruitiness, dry spice. The Marsala character fades gently.
