Aroma: The nose opens with a wealth of fruity aromas including ripe pears, apples and juicy peaches. These are accompanied by a sweet honey sweetness enveloped by hints of vanilla and caramel. A light floral note gives the bouquet an additional nuance, while hints of oak and spices underline the depth of the aroma.

Taste: A rich taste of sweet fruits develops on the palate, including oranges, red berries and ripe plums. These fruity notes are accompanied by a creamy vanilla sweetness spiced with hints of cinnamon and nutmeg. A subtle oak presence adds a pleasant depth and complexity to the taste.

Finish: The finish is long and warm, with the sweet fruit notes slowly fading to give way to a lingering impression of spice and oak. A hint of dark chocolate rounds off the taste and leaves a pleasant, long-lasting aftertaste.
