A sample as part of the "Whiskey transfer program" from dthom.
Nose: Very sweet red wine and grapey notes like brandy hit my nose up front. Dried dark fruits like figs and cherries as well as toasted pecan.
Flavor: Not as sweet as the nose suggests. Ripe red fruits, caramelized sugars, vanilla, and more wine notes.
Finish: Long finish that lingers. Starts off with a little bit of spice and more toasted nuts and fades in to some dark caramelized wood tannins with baking spices then finally pencil shavings and more wine notes.
My favorite Port finished bourbon to date. Complex with a lingering interesting finish. Kind of sweet so I wouldn't start my night here but would maybe end a nice meal with this. Definitely a good after dinner dram.
