There is dark cherry and black tea on the nose followed by a potpourri of woodsy aromas – Bay Laurel, Balsam Fir, Sassafras. The dark cherry nose carries onto your tongue, accompanied by Damson plum, Boysenberry, and a full rack of baking spices – nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger, clove, cardamon and vanilla. The finish is tangy with a mid-palate umami that would take a lot of fancy footwork to account for.
