Feb 9th, 2019Plenty with dried fruit with raisins and plums in particular. Subtle spice and vanilla on the nose. The arrival is full of flavor, black berries, black currant jam, raspberry and nutmeg, even some sherbet. The finish is spicy with nutmeg, some pepper and hints of sweet licorice. Love it!
