    Nose:

    Of great intensity and complexity given its long life. Sweet aromas stand out, with a background of ripe fruit and candied fruits. Notes of hay, cream and vanilla are prominent, complemented by aniseed nuances to reflect a full and lively nose.

    Palate:

    Its great creaminess surprises, fire-branded with vertical acidity and very pleasant, sweet lingering undertones. The minerally mouth feel accompanies a finish defined by the texture of the wood that infuses character and seriousness to a wine with a pleasant, elegant essence.
