Nose: Initially somewhat shy, then opens up to a wave of orchard fruits. Hints of cinnamon, earthy vanilla, and cut grass add layers of complexity. Over time, warmer notes of rich fruitiness emerge, along with roasted assorted nuts, mild spiciness, and toasted oak.
Taste: Light yet creamy, with an almost buttery mouthfeel. A hint of pepper lingers in the background, complementing the ripe apples and pears.
Finish: Medium to short, maintaining the same profile with a tempered conclusion.
Comment: The nose is especially inviting.
