Nose
Light touch of Pinot influence, subtle jammy notes without overwhelming red wine character, maltiness present from the Tennessee high malt.
Palate
Good sweetness with rounding body from the wine finish, oily mouthfeel, subtle jammy fruit notes, sweet tea character, grape notes transitioning from purple to green grape on the finish.
Finish
Nutty, oaky, not overly tannic, mutes some of the maltiness, lingering sweetness.
Pleasant
A well-balanced wine-finished bourbon that lets the delicate Pinot Noir influence shine through without overwhelming the core whiskey character.
