Description

Wine Tasting Notes
Consistent with my winemaking philosophy, this wine has a beautiful, rich texture to it. There is noticeable oak but it is in balance with the lime and honey aromas. The barrel fermentation enhanced the mouthfeel of the wine. I allow the wine to undergo Malo Lactic fermentation which softens the acidity of the wine. The Sur-Lie aging provides the wine a creamy mid-palate layer which enhanced the overall richness. There also is a nice vanilla aroma from the barrels as well as a touch of spice. I really like the texture of this wine. It has a stated richness and a more focused fruit profile. The subtle and delicate nuances seem to stand out.

How to Serve Liquor – Quick Tips

Temperature Matters: Serve whiskey and bourbon at room temperature, vodka chilled, and tequila slightly cool to preserve aroma and balance.
Choose the Right Glass: Use a rocks glass for whiskey, a flute or coupe for sparkling spirits, and a tulip or snifter for aged liquors.
Don’t Rush the Pour: Allow spirits to breathe for a few moments before tasting — it softens alcohol notes and opens complex flavors.
Savor with Intention: Sip slowly, appreciate aroma before taste, and pair thoughtfully with food or fine company.
