This cask selection creates a sensory profile where creamy, sweet cream-honey candy notes and juicy red fruits lead, complemented by floral touches and a subtle powdery elegance. Freshness on the palate comes from delicate citrus hints, balanced by ripe red fruits, offering an engaging balance of sweetness and vibrancy.
