Tasting Note

Visual: golden yellow, medium intensity, very bright and greenish reflections. In the edging manifested greyish tones.

Nose: of great intensity and complexity for its long life. The sweet aromas stand out, with a background of ripe fruit and frosty fruits. They also highlight notes of hay, cream and vanilla, which are complemented by aniseed nuances to reflect a full and lively nose.

Mouth: surprising its great unctuosity, marked on fire with a vertical acidity and a sweet finish very pleasant background. The palate is accompanied by an excellent salinity, with a finish delimited by the texture of the wood.
