A medium-bodied, pleasantly supple cup which opens on a delicious register of peach interlaced with delectable notes of black grapes and prunes. These flavors grow into prominence as you make your way through the cup; interrupted by exquisite tones of cedar and white almonds around the edges and towards the back, rendering a vivacious intensity to the liquor. Subtle stone-fruity undertones come through in the aftertaste, making for a distinguished finish.
