Tasting Notes
"A sweet nose showcases chocolate, along with sherry fruits and nuttiness. Find a drier, spicier oak influence on the palate, along with lemon oil, all backed by a trail-mix bag assortment of dried sugary fruits and nuts. The finish begins with citrus zest and spice, along with more oak, before turning into milk chocolate and more rich dark, dried fruits."
