Nose: Soft and fresh notes of summer fruits and dried fruits. Fresh yellow pears, juicy apricots, and raisins soaked in sherry. Deep vanilla notes mixed with caramel and marzipan.
Taste: Medium body. More of the same deep and sweet fruitiness I found on the nose. A bit cooler on the palate perhaps. Also with a touch of mint now.
Finish: Medium long finish. Softly oaky with white pepper and cinnamon skulking around in the back.
Comment: A fine one.
