TASTING NOTES: by Brian Beyke
- Nose – Mmmmm. Expansive, pillowy, creamy brown sugar, dried cherry, barrel char, and milk chocolate fill the nose. Leaning desserty but the grounding low notes keep it in check.
- Palate – The palate is mouth-coating and spiced, but not without a lovely bright cherry cordial and decently aged oak sweetness carrying through.
- Finish – The finish brings in an almost custardy vanilla sweetness that trails on, interwoven with pops of cinnamon throughout.
