Nose: Robust yet well balanced. Earthy cinnamon, rich vanilla, orchard fruits and dried fruits come together seamlessly, with oak kept firmly in check. A fleeting, refreshing hint of citrus appears with time.
Taste: Medium to light bodied and very smooth. Light fruity juice dominates, supported by the barest touch of spice and a dusting of cinnamon.
Finish: Medium to long. Limited development, but it lingers pleasantly, revealing hints of darker sweetness and gentle oak toward the end.
Comment: Polished, balanced and quietly confident.
