Intro: A 750ml corked and capped bottle, 2023 vintage, botted on 26th June 2024. Poured into a Tilquin stemmed glass.
Appearance: A very nice slightly hazy cherry ruby red colour, with a one finger pink head that had good retention and left some nice lacing.
Aroma: Tart, cherry, red berries, wood, lemon zest.
Taste: Sour, tart, cherry, red berry candy sweet, lemon zest, with notes of wood.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation.
Overall: Looks good with great flavours as the bourbon comes through as enjoyable candy sweetness.
