The nose is darker and more savoury than expected, with dark chocolate, stewed plums, red apple, marzipan, ginger and vanilla. The palate brings plums, apricot, honey, toffee, coffee and dates alongside spicy oak. The finish is long and velvety, with black cherries, dark chocolate, dry sherry and oak.
