Nose is toffee, apple juice, bright mango sweetness, and umami. Taste is a bit thin. It's bright, sherry impact with an odd mushroom-like umami in the middle with a somewhat skunky red wine barrel tannin. Finishes warm with warm bourbon barrel spice. Surprisingly more dry throughout than the nose would suggest. I think more body and sweetness would help this one out tremendously. Very odd. Not my thing, but it may be up someone's alley.
