This is priced very fairly where I’m from. It is (for me) the “don’t think too hard about it drink”. When your palate is compromised by some delicious food and your sitting by a fire chatting with friends, this is the go to 1L bottle. Nose: banana skin Sweet thin corn Youthful fumes Vanilla custard Arrival: Viscous toffee Thins out quickly in the palate Brown sugar Soft pepper Burned marshmallows Development: Fresh lemon rind A little oily Maple syrup Fresh sappy wood tannin Finish: Charred oak note Fairly clean Little clove Little teabag This is the guilty pleasure, slightly smoother JD. It’s cheap its accessible and you just shouldn’t scrutinise it too hard. Just like that song from the 80s that rolls through your head when your driving, don’t question it just go along with it and don’t ask questions. Enjoy!
