Palate
Lots of red wine and big ashy salty peat with lemon juice and gravel. Candied ginger, cherry syrup, molasses, and good peat smoke. Slightly acidic with bold character
Finish
Big wine and big peat in the finish — tangy and slightly acidic. Herbal, caramel, brine, chocolate, smoked chicken, and cinnamon linger
