An invitation to explore the deep, evolved character of aged wine. This collection gathers 12 aromas most commonly found in wines shaped by time — those that emerge slowly through maturation, whether in barrel, barrique or bottle. These are the last notes a wine develops, and often the most rewarding to recognise.

Each kit pairs the aroma samples with an English-language publication that introduces the topic of aged-wine aromatics and the practice of tasting, guiding you from first impression to confident identification.

Train your sense of smell through blind tasting: breathe in each sample, commit it to memory, and watch your olfactory recall sharpen over time. Once an aroma is familiar, it becomes far easier to detect — even in its most delicate form — in the next aged wine you pour.

The 12 aromas to discover:

• Vanilla
• Coconut
• Caramel
• Leather
• Cloves
• Resinous
• Guaiacol
• Smoked
• Hazelnut
• Nutmeg
• Fenugreek
• Truffle
