Review

Medium-light golden yellow; attractive, intense, baked apple aroma with hints of brioche and vanilla bean; medium-full body; rich, textured, baked apple flavors with firm acidity, good depth and structure, and a slight creaminess in the mouthfeel; lingering aftertaste. Very highly recommended.
