Codigo Reposado 750ml

Codigo Reposado pours a pale amber-gold with a soft pinkish hue from its time in ex-Cabernet barrels. It shows clarity and fine legs in the glass, indicating both structure and smoothness. On the nose, it offers a beautifully restrained bouquet: aromas of vanilla, toasted oak, and cooked agave lead the way. Subtle hints of dried cherry, cinnamon, and light caramel rise gently, with a trace of red fruit and cabernet warmth rounding it out. On the palate, the tequila is silky, bright, and gently rounded. It starts with a core of roasted agave, quickly joined by flavors of butterscotch, sweet almond, and a hint of stone fruit. The oak aging brings light tannin and vanilla spice, while the red wine cask influence adds a touch of grape skin dryness and subtle fruit warmth—delicate but distinct. The mouthfeel is smooth and refined, with a medium-light body and soft warmth from the alcohol. It’s approachable but elegant, delivering structure without losing freshness. The finish is clean, medium-long, and polished—leaving notes of vanilla bean, dry oak, spiced agave, and a faint echo of red berries.
