Tasting Notes:
- Eye: Gold with a splash of rose.
- Nose: Crisp oak combines with the soft sweetness of vanilla, white chocolate, and marshmallow, balanced with signature Green Spot red apples and ripe pears, along with pomegranate, cranberries, and maraschino cherries, the contribution of the wine cask.
- Taste: Sweet mouth coating takes on a dry note thanks to the effect of the wine cask. Pot still spices subside with zesty citrus leading to ripe orchard fruit and red berries. A touch of marzipan and toasted oak add to the complexity.
- Finish: Smooth finish with hints of fruit and oak.
