Tasting Notes
"True to its name, the nose is vibrant and sweet, with intense tart cherries present. Less so, floral aromas and roasted almonds come through. The palate brings more depth with light smoke and tobacco followed by an abundance of red fruit and a malty thickness. The finish allows the smoke to shine with the tartness from the wine casks lingering. "
