TASTING NOTE
COLOUR: Dry yellow straw colour with new gold reflections, brillant and strong slowly falling tear.
AROMAS: In the nose very marked fruity notes reminding us of ripe fruit (yellow melon, dry peaches, pineapple) with a background of tertiary notes arising from ageing with dry fruits (hazelnuts, ripe walnuts) burnt fruit (damp charcoal) and vegetables (tea leaves and tobacco, dry flowers).
IN THE MOUTH: Length sweet and buttery passing through the mouth, balanced in alcohol and acidity, with a slight citric freshness, with a light reminder of liquor, and an ending in the mouth of a mineral nature (plaster and grafite).
