This is super enjoyable. The nose is free of ethanol and I can’t put my finger on the notes but love it. The pull seems light yet has the hallmarks of the contrary. It has weight, softness and body. The finish has just the right amount of spice and burn, and lingers for a long time. The sherry influence is incredible with vanilla and hint of toasted orange. I am heading back tomorrow to get a second bottle.
