Charred oak, lemon peel, clove, hay, brown sugar, and nutmeg aromas. Mouthfeel is full-bodied, with some tannin. More oak, clove, hay, and nutmeg on the palate, plus green apple and pepper. Midpalate has a bit of heat, but things smoothe out fairly quickly on the finish – which has very nice length. 3.75/5.00 – Very Good (neat)
