Apperance: Deep Gold
Nose: The maritime flavours are present in this one along with mixed fruits, bubble gums and nicely softened winey and oily notes with good balance throughout. Immediately detectable is some rubber, like pencil erasers, also fresh sea spray, fennel and suntan oil. After a while, more sherry aromas emerge but not to the point of domination. With dilution it becomes much sweeter with fruit salad and candy, perhaps a hint of bananas and the lavender in the background. Great complexity, amazingly good.
Body: Medium
Palate: Starts almost sour but shifts. Good weight and intensity. Very sweet in the swallow with lots of nice fruity elements. The finish is long and winey with elements of dry oloroso, sweet fruits and tingling spices. Fabulous dr! am with amazing balance. Top notch!
