In the Glass
Appearance
Brilliant, deep amber color.
Aromatics
The nose is filled with the scents of baked apples, tart cider, roasted nuts, brown baking spices, and oak with hints of fresh baked rye bread.
Flavor
The palate echoes the nose delivering a rich and decadent baked apple-driven core with supporting notes of bitter apple, nutmeg, and dark caramel.
Intensity & Texture
Ideally balanced with great length and complexity as the trailing notes become surprisingly vibrant with apple skin tannins.
