Clear garnet color. Toasty, baked, boozy aromas and flavors of red apple dipped in salted caramel, fig, toast, and orange zest, and vanilla cupcake and berry jam with an oily, flat, dry medium-to-full body and a hot, layered, medium-long finish with accents of toasted coconut, dark chocolate covered roasted almond, and cola and dried berries. A high proof, flavorful stunner that caters to a fortified wine lover.
