TASTING NOTES

COLOR: A tone reminiscent of aged amber under the coastal mist, with golden reflections dancing like soft fire at sunset.

NOSE: Aromas that awaken with intensity: a dense blend of coastal smoke and dark spices, as if a storm had swept through an old pantry. Layers of dried herbs, damp bark, and a distant echo of sheltered sweetness, barely hinted at, appear. When a few drops of water are added, it opens up like a forest after the rain: balsamic notes, resinous freshness, and an almost medicinal air intertwine with earthiness.

TASTE: The entry is firm and enveloping, like biting into an ancient story. The smoky character imposes itself with elegance, followed by flashes of dark fruits, candied citrus peels, and a vibrant spark that runs across the palate. Each sip reveals a controlled tension between strength and smoothness, leaving an aftertaste that lingers like a legend told by the warmth of the fire.
