TASTING NOTE: Mid amber colour with bronze flashes. Lovely inviting nose with wafts of warm bread and butter pudding, vanilla, brioche and raisins with a sprinkle of nutmeg. The palate is delightful, full, yet soft and round with complex nuances of warm Madagascar spices, cigar box and roast nut. The finish is long, with wonderful balance and integrity.
