Neat. Open for six-ish years... but only one pour gone! Wow, talk about a lost bottle in the house. Came across this while doing some fall cleaning today. Not sure why it found its way in the back of a cabinet with paper plates and napkins. Might as well pay it some respect and review it.
Pears and vanilla leap from the glass. Bit of salt and sour dough. Hint of chocolate. Very approachable and polite but nothing really drawing me in. Just nice.
Milky mouth feel. Lots of salt up front with a bit of that chocolate. Chocolate transitions into a vanilla and brings the sweetness. Oh there is a nice subtle peat on the finish. That is a really balance, nice transition. The saltiness to the sweetness to the peat.
There isn’t much too this but it’s a nice comfortable ride and super smooth. Not something I am going to crave but for a Tuesday as I am just trying to relax staring at the stars on the first night of fall, it does the trick.
