Amber color. Aromas and flavors of raspberry nougat, vanilla marzipan, walnut, pecan, hazelnut, rancio, and cocoa powder with a round, lively, dry medium-to-full body and a warming, complex, long finish that shows suggestions of cherry, date, and prune fruit leather, cigar box, and old oily dried mixed nuts. Sit back and enjoy the ride of layer upon layer upon layer of flavor here.
