Long dry silky Finish

but there's enough good stuff going on to give it a qualified recommendation in the value category

a veritable cru on the hill between Soave and Monteforte d’Alpone

and cherry pie with a hint of vanilla add to a lingering finish

Macallan Rare Cask Scotch brand_Rittenhouse Long dry silky FinishOn the nose, soft notes of opulent vanilla and raisin give way to a sweet ensemble of apple, lemon, and orange. All balanced by a spicy quartet of root ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove. On the palate, this spicy quartet are unwavering. Oak resonates, timeless, polished and rich. Vanilla and chocolate lead the finale along with a light citrus zest. Warming and woody finish.
