Tasting Notes:

Light golden color with an amber tint.
The nose is perfumey sweet apple with a nice note of white pepper and baking spices and a touch of mint.
On the palate this has a rich note of white pepper, there are layers of spice and pretty apple. Fairly dry on the palate but very smooth on the palate.
Very good and a great value.
