TASTING NOTES :
NOSE: A powerful and complex nose, marked by delicate woody notes enriched with hints of caramelized vanilla and coconut powder, characteristic of American oak. Fresh floral tones unfold, accompanied by dried tobacco and balsamic accents of coffee and chocolate. In the background, spicy touches such as floral pepper and cinnamon balance the ensemble, highlighted by a saffron note that enhances the aromas.
PALATE: A soft and silky attack with an elegant, well-integrated tannic structure. The palate is round and rich, offering strong aromatic intensity with notes of honey, flowers, and roasted nuances. The finish is persistent and indulgent, leaving a fresh and delicately spicy sensation that prolongs the pleasure.
