Tasting Notes
"Intense grapiness, like grape jelly cooking on a stove, immediately wafts to the nose along with vanilla, and more savory notes of licorice and bay leaf. The grape element is more fresh and tart on the palate, mixing with notes of golden apple, rich macadamia nut, nutmeg, pinecone, subtle florals, and spicy sandalwood. The finish is at once sweet, tart, and spicy. "
