Nose:
A generous, fruit-led opening of ripe peach and apricot, layered with banana bread and softly spiced pear. Honeyed sweetness runs throughout, lifting notes of cinnamon, honeycomb, and confectionary bonbons, while a light grassy freshness keeps the profile bright and composed.
Palate:
Clean and fruit-driven, with banana and angel food cake setting a soft, airy texture. Strawberry and cream and dried apricot add richness, balanced by a subtle iced tea note and almond nuttiness. Gentle wood spice builds through clove and cinnamon, bringing structure without overshadowing the fruit.
Finish:
Tea-like tannins tighten the sweetness, with white pepper, vanilla, and honey lingering in a clean, balanced close.
