Matured in one-third first-fill European oak sherry butts and two-thirds refill sherry butts. Rich sherry notes on the nose, with vanilla, sultanas, raisins, cherry blossom, and a hint of new leather. Initially, smooth and very sweet orchard fruits on the palate, with cherry liqueur turning to black tea and fennel. Drying very slowly in the lingering finish, with spicy oak. (6,000 bottles)
