Tasting Notes
The aroma of apple as well pumpkin pie filled the room mingling choc chip cookies and wild berry Halloween incense sticks. On the palate neat we felt ‘assaulted’ by American oak, chewing on a wooden stick, vanilla in abundance next to tannins and essence of mango. Following the addition of water give it a little time, as it is so intense with heavily perfumed fruity aromas, before melted vanilla ice cream, dark pepper and dark sugar appeared. The taste now very different, juicy and mellow like almond oil, nougat, peaches and cream and the long finish of a chocolate lava cake.
