Tasting Notes

Colour

Deep amber with rich mahogany undertones and a coppery glow.

Nose

Buttery American pancakes, topped with blueberry compote. A whisper of smoke.

Palate

Apple and cinnamon muffins with a festive spice platter, toasted by the log fire. A warm, comforting palate of orchard fruit sweetness, layered with festive spice and a subtle, lingering smoke.

Finish

Warm cinnamon lingers, mellowing into soft fruits, leaving a gentle, fruit-forward finish.
