Very enjoyable; no water needed; floral, not peaty; slight warmth to finish.

I like this one a good bit. The nose initially presents with spice (almost a rye spiciness), ripe red apple, honey, vanilla custard, and pepper. Given a little time, the apple note opens up into ripe cantaloupe. On the palate, a surprisingly mild opening leads to a full, rich middle - there's a bit of fruit salad (apple, melon, maybe even pear and banana), a lift of baking spice and pepper, and vanilla creme - rather custard like at the end. The melon and creamy vanilla linger on the palate. Really a good dram for the price - less than $40 US!

Riche, huileux, miellé. Notes d'oranges et de fruits exotiques. Couleur miel dorée vive. Fruité et floral. Petit côté caramel intéressant. Acheté car il était en spécial à la SAQ (Campanile).

Omg so smooth.. nice dram for the price.
