Top Notes For

Tree Kilpatrick

8.8

Beautiful tree called árbol del amate on the label. Color is blood red. Aroma of perfumes and rosehip tea. Flavors are supple and subtle. Hint of berry juice. Maybe a cherry-berry cocktail. Like ocean spray. Also got a nice spice zip. Nutmegs and cloves. This is straight up Rioja temp. Hits all the right notes. And looks lovely in the glass.
