The aroma opens with a sharp burst of orange citrus, prominent minerality and earthy tones of hay and wood. Light alcohol laces through, complemented by dried fruit and a caramel sweetness. On the palate, the complexity shines with minerality leading the way, joined by the intriguing nuance of pencil shavings and hay. Cooked agave reveals a raisin essence alongside the sweetness of yellow raisins, earthy undertones, and subtle notes of honey and amaretto.
