Tequila Matchmaker Premium Brand
Lot 28: Agave forward, honey, melon, candied walnuts, plums, white chocolate, white pepper, green apples, pretty summery and well balanced.
The lot 105 is tastiest and most complex Fortaleza blanco in a while. More cooked agave punch than at least the last 25-30 lots. Grassy, mint, melon, Bazooka Joe, citrus, plenty going on here and a bit "chewy" to boot. Pleasant stuff indeed!
Nose: A touch of cider and spice. Vanilla, fruity agave and toasty hints of oak barreling. Subdued minerals and earth. A rich, round fruity profile. Flavor: A cohesive/harmonious first impression. Fruit, spice, mild pepper heat and mellow oak wrapped in a buttery package. It blooms as it sits on the palate.
