Tasting Notes from Celtic Whiskey Shop and Wines on the Green

|
| Nose | Pronounced lychee notes with mango, pineapple, nutmeg, cinnamon and red apples. |
| Palate | Sweet and medium- to full-bodied with very high but still well-balanced acidity. Ripe fruit flavours of red apples, fresh lemon and pineapple, then some bready notes of cinnamon rolls and freshly baked brioche. Has great length and complexity. |

| Making Techniques | Grapes are left on vines through a frost in order to concentrate the flavours further. The time of harvest varies, but it could be as late as January of the following year. The grapes are carefully selected, they are fermented in 1000l oak Fuder and stainless steel tanks, and later blended together to add complexity. The wine rests for a few months on its fine lees before bottling. |
| Closure | Cork |
| Cellaring/Ageing Potential | Can be enjoyed for many years, even decades! |
