Review and Tasting


Sampled on 09/12/2013

Appearance:

Clear, coppery amber.

Aroma:

Sugary candy floss, apple cider, fresh green apples, green grapes, papaya and faint orange marmalade.

Taste:

Apple cider, dried apricot, marmalade and prune and plump raisons with notes of mince pie and moist fruit cake. Prune fruit honeyed sweetness is countered by assertive cracked black pepper spice.

Aftertaste:

Sweet fruit cake, cinnamon spice and black pepper spiced oak. The finish lets down the fruity palate.
