The first couple of sniffings are gently sweet, clearly Sherried and honey-like, then the aroma turns biscuity, oaky vanilla- and marzipan-like, with background scents of wood resin and butterscotch. Palate entry is sweet, oaky and a touch hot and prickly; aggressive notes of bittersweet chocolate and cocoa appear at midpalate, eclipsing the oak. Finishes honey sweet, piquant and spirity.
