Tasting Notes
"Aromas of sharp clove, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, green apple and lemon burst from the glass. The palate is a mix of vegetal notes like green pepper along with strong woodshed elements and loads more of that spice. Slightly tannic notes of bitter tea come in toward the end. The midpalate is missing some necessary richness, but the spice carries into the finish. "
