Incredible oak. Cedar. Burnt sugar. Anise. Tannic, though this might be from previous pours. Cherries on the nose. And brown caramelized sugars. Strawberry notes on the nose as well. Light to medium body. So good it makes me frown. Coffee finish? Milk chocolate. This is happening live, folks. Orange peel. The mouthfeel has a brief chewiness followed by... I lack the words. My wife loves me enough to cover the cost of a pour. Smells of light cinnamon, bright with red berries. Really stretching this out for you guys. Tannic but delicious. Last sip! Ready? Perfumed strawberry aroma. Shortbread cookie scent. Sip of water. Vanilla frosting smell. Orange zest. The taste has a good amount of orange and cocoa dust. That dust causes dryness. Do you live to live?
