Tasting Notes
"Spicy tannic oak is the predominant note on the nose, along with wintergreen, fresh mint, and sour cherries. The palate is rich and chewy, with barrel char, candied oranges, red plums, and bittersweet caramel. The finish offers dark chocolate brownies, spent coffee grounds, cinnamon and cloves, black pepper, leather, and sawdust. "
