Clear color. Aromas and flavors of citrus and buttermilk, orange blossoms and flowers, pineapple, and grilled goat with a round, crisp, dry medium body and a warming, compelling, medium-length finish with impressions of pepper, roasted corn and plantain, grilled banana leaf, and mint. Some really lovely and complex flavors and aromas that lead into a gentle overall palate.
