Tasting Notes
"The nose is spicy and woodsy, with notes of orange zest and a hint of balsamic vinegar. The palate is sweet and a bit caramelized, but more of that woodsiness keeps the dial on the slightly savory side. It tastes a bit like a room temperature or cool version of mulled wine, with a hint of bitterness in the finish. The flavor may be a bit too spicy or oxidized for traditional cocktails like a Manhattan, but it has major spritz appeal as a sipping vermouth or even a chilled dessert wine. "
