Alluring, with buckwheat, singed cinnamon and sandalwood notes out front, backed by notes of hazelnut husk, Boston brown bread and sesame. Features a flash of green tea through the finish, which has a live wire of acidity harnessing everything.
Toffee and salted nuts. Caramel. Smoke. Dried cherry. Full-bodied. Medium sweet. Lots of dried fruit and butterscotch. Small amount of tannin tension gives this a sense of freshness. Drink now.
Caramel and butterscotch with some figs and dried fruit. Medium-bodied with a very fine texture that turns creamy. The finish shows milk chocolate, nuts and fruit. Medium sweet. Pecan pie.
A bright, ruddy tawny, with an olive rim. Vigorous on both the nose and palate, with a classy Cognac-like spirit character and lifted drive. Well-structured, with a walnut, green (tomato plant) and black cardamom edge to its tightly focused fruit notes of dried apricot and fig, along with hints of salted caramel. The penetrating, back-of-the-net finish is very precise, lingering and in the Taylor’s house style.
