Palate: Mouthfeel is the first thing to hit, and it’s delicious. Starts creamy then adds some effervescence and champagne notes. Roasted corn opens up with a moderate proof hit. Baked vanilla and soaking brioche for French Toast. Sultana. sweetness with a bright, acidic wine overtone that lightens the pour.
Finish: Effervescent yet coating, leaving the vinous and vanilla notes to lacquer the palate on a medium-to-long finish.

Nose: Rich oak at the forefront, before a smokiness develops alongside typical confection. It opens considerably with water, yielding a broad field of grain, roasty-nutty confection and rye spice amid a smoky, smoldering backdrop.
Palate: Remarkably soft-textured at entry, with the peat more immediate than in the nose. Juicy and zesty, it quickly develops a spicy rye top note at midpalate join by smoke, oak, sweet corn, and grassy rye.
Finish: The finish pings between smoky peat and peppery-clove rye note.
