When I saw this on discount at TJs, I thought I was I'm for an amazing value...it's certainly drinkable but the strong alcohol and heat is very unpleasant. That aside, there are flavors of apple, meyer lemon, and vanilla. On the palate there is a pretty strong tart acidity that doesn't quite feel balanced...and alcohol. This is almost good, but the winemaking missed the mark.

Butter, vanilla, spice, and apple. Good acidity and finish but more new oak than I'd like.
