Nose: Rich caramel and vanilla notes dominate, followed by hints of dried fruit and toasted oak. A subtle nuttiness reminiscent of almonds emerges, along with a whisper of dark chocolate and baking spices.
Palate: Smooth and full-bodied, with an initial burst of sweet caramel and honey. The sherry influence becomes more pronounced, bringing raisin and fig flavors. Cinnamon and nutmeg add warmth, balanced by a touch of citrus zest. Toasted oak provides a solid backbone throughout.
Finish: Long and satisfying, with lingering notes of caramel and dried fruit. The sherry sweetness gradually fades, giving way to a pleasant oakiness and a subtle spice tingle. A hint of dark chocolate bitterness appears at the very end, leaving a complex and memorable impression.
