SPIRIT NOTES
We Panellists like to carry our parma violets and chunks of huckleberry taffy in a freshly laundered cotton sock. The nose was sweet, with white chocolate, chardonnay and honeydew melon. To taste, we found toffee sponge cake, plums, red grape and a tickle of chili-infused marmalade. Water brought fresh linen from the laundromat, Turkish delight, lemon icing and acacia honey. The palate remained spicy, and was joined by an emphasis of cranberry, the return of huckleberry and sticky dark cherry.
After 13 years in an ex-bourbon hogshead, we transferred this to a first fill American Oak barrique with shaved, toasted and re-charred heads for the remainder of its maturation.
