Taste note

  • Colour:

    Dark copper

  • Nose:

    A medley of flavours from raison and bursting currants, intertwine oak and subtle clove, concealing smooth sweet lavender.

  • Palate:

    A modern classic fruit fusion of tart grape skin, mandarine and fig flow together with vibrant oak to coat the mouth with a delicate oil and honeyed sweetness.

  • Finish:

    Long finish with flavors of raisins, vanilla and honey ending with oak spices.
