Deep amber with burnished mahogany glints, this aged Amontillado opens with roasted hazelnut, walnut husk, dried orange peel and a whisper of tobacco leaf and beeswax. The palate is bone dry yet remarkably complex, layering toasted almond, dried apricot, polished oak and saline minerality. Delicate oxidative notes from years of biological and oxidative aging lend depth, while vibrant acidity keeps the structure taut and lively. The finish is long, nutty and savory, echoing salted nuts and a faint touch of iodine.
