Nose: Features ripe apples and vanilla, accented by hints of eucalyptus, adding a green-ish touch.

Taste: Full-bodied, delivering a rich and creamy texture. The apples have a bitter-ish edge, complemented by almost wine-like notes and rich vanilla.

Finish: Medium-long, continuing the theme of fruitiness and creaminess. There's a presence of oakiness, yet it's free from astringency.

Comment: Creamily complex.
