Tasting Notes

This opened with a deep bowl of fruits on the nose, where orange embraced honeydew melon, apricot proclaimed its passion for cape gooseberry and mango muddled with pineapple. The palate, deeper still, majored on chocolate fondant with raspberries and cream, mango and lime coulis, and raisins bathing in melted butter with glacé cherries. Water gave both the nose and palate bass notes of coconut, sandalwood and plum, with top notes of juicy mango, orange wine and nectarine. After 19 years in an ex-bourbon barrel, we transferred this to an Australian fortified chardonnay cask for the remainder of its maturation.
