Tasting Notes

👁️ Appearance

Medium amber, slight red tint.

👃 Nose

Wine forward. Fruity with a bit of mustiness. A little rye spice under all that.

👅 Palate

Pretty good, the rye takes the finish nicely, much more balanced than on the nose.

Overall Impressions

The rye stands up well to the cab franc finish. Pretty solid for a sub-100 proof pour.
