Nose

Brown sugar and doughy bread begin a sweet and earthy nose. Chopped dark cherries and cranberry mix. French toast, with dollops of dill.

Palate

Streak of smoke layers the sip and builds brightly with crushed roasted nuts. Sugar and ginger enter swiftly and round out to the oak tannins.

Finish

Finish: The finish lingers and quickly captures the oak again. Allspice surprises with hints of gingerbread.

Comment

Flourishes as it opens a bit in the glass. The smoke gets your attention.
