Tasting Notes
"The nose is herbal and honeyed, with chrysanthemum bud and stewed fruits. The palate is a bit flat in comparison, with dry oak, and touches of spice and hay, with those honey and fruity notes relegated to the background. A little bit sharp on the finish, with dry, astringent wood, pepper, and spice, before light honey and agave come through to round things out."
