This magnum opens up with an intriguing mix of crème brûlée, musty cellar, earthy champignons, and crisp yellow apples. As it breathes, it unwraps layers of caramel, lemon tart, and hazelnut, all with a note of Jerez. The palate is greeted with a fresh yet richly oily texture, carrying notes of overripe apples, warm bakery spices, caramel, and a finish reminiscent of apple jam. It's a mix of complexity, with each layer offering something more to explore - undeniably easy to enjoy and utterly satisfying. It stands as a close runner-up for my night's favorite.
