There is a hint of tropicality to the dried apricot, mango, white peach and honeysuckle suffused nose that is trimmed in noticeable but still discreet wood toast. There is fine density to the delicious and seductively textured medium weight flavors that brim with dry extract that should allow the wood treatment that resurfaces on the balanced and persistent finish to be successfully absorbed in time. This is really quite good and while this could be enjoyed young my sense is that a good deal more complexity will develop with 2 to 3 years of bottle age. - Allen Meadows
