Aroma: The opening reveals a complex and rich profile with notes of dried fruit, ginger, and a hint of vanilla and cinnamon. Gradually, aromas of ripe red berries emerge, followed by citrusy hints of orange marmalade and touches of tropical fruits.
Flavor: On the palate, it is rich and smooth, reflecting the intensity of the aroma. Spices such as cloves and pepper intertwine with accents of orange and toasted mature oak. The complexity deepens with nuances of tobacco and dark chocolate, adding depth and structure to the flavor.
Finish: Persistent and refined, with a return of dried fruit, ginger, and a light note of orange peel that perfectly balances the experience.
