Description

Cardenal Mendoza Non Plus Ultra displays a tantalisingly deep old mahogany colour, bright and flecked with hints of copper.

On the nose there are complex aromas deriving from the very oak of the barrels and the Oloroso Sherry they once contained with subtle notes of dried fruit and nuts, dried orange peel and warm spice, all perfectly homogenised.

On the palate the brandy is dry, very smooth and well-rounded with a depth of flavour which seems to constantly produce another subtlety. The finish is warming and persistent, inspiring one to contemplation.
