Taste
Very thick and rich, heavy body, good depth, lush and balanced, awesome. Very sweet apricotty flavors. Powerfully fruity with lovely acidity backing up the sweetness. Finish features nutty, spicy oak and outstanding persistence. Palate of melon, sauvignon blanc nettles, very ripe yellow apples and raisins, with hints of saffron, vanilla and as the temperature rises, tobacco; all followed by a lovely spiciness.

Deep, rich aromas of ripe coconut, dried apricot, honey, vanilla, saffron and spicy oak.
