Nose: Mild yet inviting, with soft notes of chocolate, leather, and hints of coffee. Dried fruits come forward, especially raiDsins and figs, adding depth with time.

Taste: Medium-bodied, rich and complex. A beautifully layered profile of dried fruits - raisins, plums, and apricots - bring a warm, opulent sweetness.

Finish: Medium-long, carrying forward the dried fruits alongside notes of leather and milk chocolate, rounding out in a smooth, satisfying close.

Comment: Deeply comforting.
