Nose

Streaks of golden-brown sugar and nutmeg. Ripe fig with marshmallow and macaroon sweetness. Oak tannins.

Palate

Brown sugar and caramel with figgy richness and big oak.Buttered almonds with warm cereal tones.

Finish

A bit hot, with a punch of clove and oak, but settles in for the caramel sweetness.

Comment

Add water and dark cherries join. Truly elegant and beautiful. Bravo! Enjoy watching it unfold with a large ice cube.
