Clear color. Aromas and flavors of cheese rind and cane sugar vinegar, sweet red peppers and pickle juice, vinegar based yellow mustard, and melon and orange with a satiny, vibrant, dry medium body and a warming, refreshing, medium-long finish with suggestions of pickled orange rind, anise and strawberry, and vanilla sugar coated almonds. Layered flavors of red fruits with nice tannins and some umami notes that will make this interesting in cocktails as well as a stand alone sipper.
