Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes
Full bodied and pronounced on both nose and palate and overflowing with flavor throughout with notes of anise, lily, fresh walnut, wilted basil, chestnut and white pepper punctuated by a bright acidity. There is a slight sweetness and astringency mid-palate to add texture before the long finish as waves and waves of luscious umami crash over the tongue.
