Savage & Cooke Cabernet Sauvignon Cask Finished, 50%

Price: 50 Issue: Spring 2024 Reviewer: Shane English Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey

Toffee, vanilla custard, and a hint of grape jelly rise from the glass, backed by berry sorbet and caramel candies. The palate is bouncy, with dark fruits and baked desserts vying to take the lead. Vanilla sweetness sings a soft harmony, bringing some unity to the prominent berry, cherry cordial, coffee cake, and graham cracker flavors. The finish is moderate in length and comes together with prickly cinnamon and chai spice.
