When served slightly chilled (e.g. not cold) it opens up with Jerez, honey, baked apples and bakery. Fresh, and expressive yet it lacks complexity (though it's definitely not simple). Maybe one should keep this for a longer time in the cellar. Who knows? The aftertaste is long and vinous.
Not a simple yet friendly and relaxed mix of baked yellow apples, Jerez, a few spoons of honey, and a butter-covered bakery. In my opinion, it lacks acidity (maybe because of the higher dosage), but it doesn't bother me at all, as it's so pleasant to drink. No fuss, just pure joy.
