Orange sherbet in the nose, with lemons, lots of caramel and butterscotch, honey. Something like soured Chardonnay wafts through the background, with a tinge of good... uh... fartyness.

 

Really? Wow, palate is sweet for the age. And delicious! A great spice mix of bay leaves, pine, ginger, nutmeg, with white wine. And lots of botanical leafy stuff, hay. And funk.

 

Really unusual flavors in here, which play together in complex ways. Don't add water.

n:  Moldy orange peels

 

p:  Twigs and dry leaves.  Very earthy, but with a twist of orange.
