The nose is expressive with green apple, peach, ripe citrus, oak, smoke, and toast, with hints of ginger, vanilla and cinnamon. The palate reflects the nose, smooth with a wonderful balance of fruit, barrel notes and spices. The exceptional texture is immediately evident, as the richness of the mouthfeel enhances the flavors. The finish is long and complex, with a subtle nuttiness and contrasting bitterness becoming evident.
