Tasting notes：

Nose: Nice sherry, for sure. A lot of juicy cherries and raspberries, along with orange peels, roasted walnuts and hints of potting soil. The smokiness is quite subdued, but that’s not a problem for me. Some marmalade, a little concrete dust, linseed, oil paint and leather. Then also pipe tobacco and prunes, along with some antique furniture.

Palate: Pretty high on stewed fruits again, including a light balsamic touch. Nice prunes, redcurrants and cherries. Then also the more industrial notes like oily rags, some boot polish, diesel and old leather. A little chocolate and thick marmalade. Faded smoke in the background, as well as some very faint medicinal notes and beautiful tobacco.

Finish: Really long, still nicely sherried, with old smoke, drops of cough syrup and engine fumes.
