Color: Golden

Nose: Oily raisins, vanilla, oak, orange peel, and baking spices.

Taste: Has that oily single pot still mouthfeel. Dried fruits, vanilla, a bit of chocolate & mocha, with grape and citrus.

Finish: Fruity and sugary. Very gentle with little warmth. Bits of oak and caramel round out the finish.

Thoughts: A very fruity take on redbreast from the sherry butts, and a good oily mouthfeel.

Score: 82 out of 100
