Description
Nose : Fruit, leather, and earth. Stewed fruits with slightly funky notes of old leather boots called to mind the old woman who lived in a shoe. Preserved citrus rinds with ginger candies, pickled fruits, and hoisin sauce. The wife described it as fish bait with slightly earthy-mushroom undertones.
Taste : Medium-bodied and mild with gentle notes of fruit, salt, and pastries. Plums and pluots hit the palate first, followed by dried fruit, sweet spice, and chocolate syrup. Notes of buttery pastries and marble pound cake came near the end with a kiss of salt and earthy funk.
Finish : Lingering subtle fruits and earth.
