An instant favorite. Ripe red grapes, delicate daffodil nectar, and a lingering misty fog on the bay greeted me even as I pulled the cork.
As is my wont, I took a long initial pull so I could fully experience the character on my palate. A significant dose of sea salt delighted then gave way to an oily spice ointment with apple and horseradish. The cask strength peat was a gentle driftwood fire that warmed and dried me off after a quick dip in a tide pool overlooking the surging sea.
