Online Tasting Notes from Master of Malt for reference:
Nose:
Deep Oloroso sherry comes through, with stewed plums, raspberry jam and juicy sultanas initially followed by hints of Pinot Noir, orange peel and dried apricots. Vanilla, toasted brown sugar, milk chocolate and aromatic ginger spice appear underneath with sweet peat warmth throughout.
Palate:
Notes of stewed orchard fruit, chocolate-covered raisins and Seville orange marmalade are followed by hints of set honey, praline, red berries and gingerbread. In the backdrop, there's cracked black pepper, tangy oak and smoke from a smouldering bonfire.
Finish:
Sherry tones lead the finish, with a hint of buttery toffee apples, oak spice and fruitcake.
