| Test Results | Deep brown color, surrounded by a wide amber rim. An opulent, intense and powerful nose of English cake, with all the elements in perfect harmony. In a base with intense notes of raisins and toffee, mixed with delicious vanilla, nutty aromas, marzipan and spicy notes of black pepper. The palate is round, concentrated and full of nut and caramel. Sustaining the dense and smooth texture is a very well integrated acidity that provides an attractive liveliness that persists in a very long aftertaste. A superb Single Harvest Tawny that has all the aromas, intense and soft, typical of a long aging in oak barrels, and maintains an exceptional harmony and balance. |
| Gastronomy | Ideal as an aperitif, with desserts, with cheese, with chocolates |
