Nose: crisp orchard apple, a very gentle coastal peat with a splash of salt air. Floral honey. Cinnamon, caramel, dried black cherries/plum. Elegant. Sherry influence is strong but doesn't come through in an overly syrupy or earthy way. Palate: a symphony of flavor. Begins with a nice fresh orchard fruit/apple tone, leads to sweet caramel and vanilla on the mid palate transitioning into a touch of candied orange peel balanced with a coastal/sea breeze salinity and touch of smoke. Finish: mild salinity, numbing oak tannin, warm and moderatelt long.
