This wine has a subtle, pale gold color with fine, persistent bubbles. It is delicate, with aromas of peach, white flowers, vanilla pod, and brioche on the nose and flavors of fresh fruit and honey on the palate.
After 18yrs in ex-Bourbon barrels old ex-Oloroso Sherry Butts ex-Port Pipes & ex-Madeira Drums work their magic for a minimum of 6 months, creating a whiskey rich & warming with a lingering malty sweetness & notes of cinnamon baked apple & biscuit.

Green tinge to the yellow color. It’s ripe, with tropical fruit, sliced mangoes, peaches & pineapple, yet there’s a green apple note as well. Full-bodied & dense, with a creamy texture & a long & sophisticated finish..
Luminous, aromatic, & beautifully lifted. High-toned bouquet of red berry fruits is accented by floral notes of fresh rose petals. There is a crystalline, salty edge bracing the raspberry & bright tart cherry fruit.

This is a beautiful Champagne, balancing minerality with citrus and white fruits. It has a freshness to it as well as a fine structure so the bottling could still age. Drink from 2023.
