Tasting Notes

"Honey-drizzled apples enticingly appear at the forefront of a well-integrated, richly sweet nose. The palate is more vanilla-forward, and while the honey doesn't disappear, it shows here as separate from sherry-soaked dried fruits. Also find soft oak and light spice leading to a smooth, satisfying finish which offers plenty to think about as you continue to reminiscence on the sip which preceded it."
