Tasting Notes
"The nose is akin to a handful of trail mix with walnuts and fruit chunks, and also offers clover honey and prunes. The palate is rich with raspberry syrup, candied orange slices, wintergreen, and baked, mixed berry pie. On the finish, find gingersnap cookies, spiced Christmas fruit cake, and slightly sulfurous tannic oak."
