TASTING NOTES - DEPAZ VSOP RÉSERVE SPÉCIALE

Nose

On the nose, brioche, red fruits and cherry in alcohol, with a touch of struck match and a hint of walnut.

Palate

Smooth, with white pepper, cocoa, vanilla and cherry in alcohol, then warm tropical fruit.

Finish

Medium finish, with wood, cocoa and roasted notes, and tropical fruit.

Overall, the Sampan Cellar Series is very appealing on the nose, with a complex and deep flavour profile. Easy to appreciate yet, at the same time, deep and structured.
