Tasting Notes
Plenty of dark fruits on the nose neat – plums, blueberries, grapes and cherries – intermingled with a sweetness coming from nutmeg and cinnamon. This was extremely spicy on the palate, like a German landjäger or peitschenstecken (a small flat sausage containing highly seasoned, well-smoked meat), comparable to chorizos in Spain and Mexico. Plenty of water calmed things down, delivering the aroma of a sunny, yet cool, day enjoying a very fruity white wine sangria while, in the background, somebody fired an old-fashioned flintlock musket. The mouthfeel was now creamy, with the spicy toasted note of a spiced vanilla chai cake in the background.
