Nose
Flaunts juicy red apples, dried apricots, and ripe cherries accentuated by nutmeg and fennel. The seasoned oak ties these elements into a refined and intricate bouquet.
Palate
An initial burst of butterscotch and orchard fruits complemented by toasted almonds. A touch of sea salt weaves through, enhancing its smooth and velvety texture.
Finish
Ends with a delightfully long finish, featuring lingering caramel and gentle spice, encapsulating a journey from fruity brightness to a spicy-sweet finale.
