Tasting Notes
"The nose is all the best treats from the fair ground — caramel popcorn, candied apple, spiced cider, and a hint of orange, and pinecone. The palate takes on tangier flavors of tart plum and golden apple, with more cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg sprinkled throughout. A flare of black pepper takes the flavors into the finish, which is both sweet and mildly tart with some spicy heat. "
