Tasting Note

Sight: Spectacular amber red color.

Smell: Elegant and deep vegetable dabs with classic herbal dabs of vermouth: gentian, iris root, licorice, angelica. Also, it has rusting and PX wine dabs.

Taste: Delicate bouquet. Pleasant entry in which the bitter dabs stand out. They are balanced with the acid and sweet hints of the vermouth. Also, it has classic dabs such as sweet and bitter roots mixed with spices, herbs and flowers. We feel spiced bouquets that reminds us of gentian, angelica, herbs such as thyme and flowers such as chamomile.  At the end stand out the Jerez wine and the rusting with a bitter point and balsamic licorice dabs.
