Nose: Very rich and warm nose. Dried fruits, honey cake, and Christmas cake. Nuts, raisins, dates, and figs. With time more and more warm. Soothing exotic spices. Aroma therapy!

Taste: Medium body. Dry-ish and a bit oaky - but it works. Caramel, sweet licorice and vanilla. Soft fruitinss in the background.

Finish: Medium to long finish. Drier still. A little watery but on the right side of not working. Caramel, chocolate and dried fruits. Even more fruity right at the end.

Comment: Love the nose! Very happy with the rest!
