Tasting

Notes

Complex, it begins with a profile marked by the mixture of different types of French and American woods, ex bourbon, pepper, toasted almonds, vanilla, date nuts.

On the palate it is unctuous and full, the nose continues with an enveloping profile due to the different notes of French and American oak. It then evolves on notes of cocoa, pepper, raisins, tobacco, plums and some saltiness.

Very long, silky, enveloping finish.
