Nose: Fairly sweet, light and fruity from the start. A mild maltiness mixed with sweet and softly spicy oak. With time also dried fruits, cinnamon and nuts.
Taste: Medium to light body. Clean and fruity. Apple and banana are the most prominent fruit notes here. Cinnamon and creamy vanilla. Malt and burnt toast in the background.
Finish: Medium long finish. Oily or creamy mouthfeel. Cinnamon and white pepper now. Banana cream cake served with a glass of Fino sherry.
Comment: Enjoyable fruitiness.
