The nose is very nice. Sweet and fruity for sure. When having a sip, for me, this almost goes down like a mild Scotch--thin and light. I get just a hint of the port wine finishing on the tongue, but the longer the finish goes on (which is not very long) the more bourbon-y it tastes. It's a very light fruity flavor with little spice. Perfectly sip-able, but nothing special in my opinion. The flavors are muted at such a low proof.
