TASTING NOTE: The aroma entices with bold caramel and vanilla. The palate is brisk and relatively dry, despite the succulent aroma, show - ing vanilla and oak up front, and rounding into nutmeg, almond, vanilla and bitter orange on the finish. Versatile for cocktails, including its namesake Sazerac. Best Buy. Score: 93 (Kara Newman, Wine Enthusiast, July 2016) |
