Aroma offers ripe pear, buttered bread, white grape, honey, cantaloupe, candy corn, vanilla cream, and cake batter. Ethanol is nil. Very pleasant.
Palate brings stewed pear from the nose, candied orange, cranberry, clove, light honey, vanilla, barley, and toasted oak. Definitely not lacking in flavor.
Finish consist of some sharp unattenuated alcohol (92 proof?) pot still funk, almond, apricot, white pepper, and tannic astringency/bitterness. Mouthfeel is a very buttery medium-bodied, but overall the finish misses the mark a bit.
Easily the worst of the Green Spot wine geese series. There is an overall sharpness to the affair that doesn’t seem to need to be there. While it far from sucks, at 104.99 it just isn’t close to a rebuy either.
