Nose: Buttery with a little bit of boiled/stewed pears or apples. Palate: Very Sweet- Baked Fruits (Couldn't pinpoint which ones unfortunately, (it's either a bit of an enigma, or more likely I can't correctly articulate what I taste), brown sugar, honey, and a slight bit of oak on the finish. Finish: Finish is short, Oak is more prevalent in the finish; but generally same flavours continue. In my case needed water to open it up. Very easy and enjoyable drink
