Wolfburn X-Mas Edition 2023 – 46%

This year Wolfburn Santa Claus fed the reindeer well and the X-Mas bottling arrived on time. And she’s pretty too!

This year’s data: Just over eight years old, composed of two types of barrels – Oloroso Sherry Hogsheads and First Fill Bourbon Barrels, bottled at 46% drinking strength, in natural color and without chill filtration.

The original tasting notes:

Nose: Sweet sherry notes mix with hints of dried fruit. Aromas of vanilla follow, and there is just a hint of coffee and dark chocolate

Palate: Juicy and mouthwatering. Rich toffee and syrup flavors lead the way, with overtones of cocoa and vanilla. Fruity sweetness coats the palate, with autumn fruit and honey notes leading to a warm, soft finish.

Finish: Vanilla notes gently fade away with a lovely trace of caramel at the end.
