Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Light golden amber with bright clarity
Nose
Delicate fruity notes with hints of apple and pear, subtle oak spice and a whisper of floral honey. Clean and refined nose with gentle vanilla undertones.
Palate
Smooth and balanced with initial sweetness of ripe stone fruits and subtle cereal grains. Mid-palate brings light caramel and a touch of white pepper, with creamy mouthfeel throughout.
Finish
Medium length finish with lingering sweetness, gentle oak tannins, and a pleasant warmth that fades gracefully.
