Thomas S. Moore Bourbon Finished In Cabernet Sauvignon Casks
customer reviews
Description
There’s no shortage of toasty oak here, but there’s also dark chocolate on the nose hinting at the heavy fruit component of the wine. There’s a lot of herbal elements here, perhaps evoking that brambly quality you get in a lot of cabernet. The palate is at first a bit closed off, with a significant note of peanut shells. Fruit emerges on the tongue in short order, but it feels a little blown out, with a somewhat blunt, jam/jelly-like note that has a somewhat gummy texture to it. The finish is quite dry, even feeling a bit on the dusty side, slightly grainy, savory, and, like the Chardonnay Finish, a little beefy. 95.3 proof.
