Nose:
This brandy presents a nose with subtle nuances of vanilla and a slight wooded aroma, enriched by the traditional aging in oak casks. These elements come together to create a smooth and inviting aromatic profile.
Palate:
On the palate, 1920 Brandy Aguardente delivers a very smooth texture with dominant flavors of vanilla and a touch of caramel, providing a rich and velvety experience. The oak influence is evident but does not overpower the delicate balance of flavors, making it a pleasantly complex sip.
Finish:
The finish of this brandy is long and lingering, with the sweet vanilla and oak flavors slowly fading, leaving a subtle salty note that adds depth to the drinking experience. This finish encapsulates the essence of its maturation near the sea, contributing to its unique character.
