Aroma: Lots of Sweet Agave, Vanilla is the standout from the barreling. Caramel and Oak are also very present in this young Reposado. There's a little Cinnamon/Baking Spices on the nose. Citrus and a Floral note give their influences as well. And you get a little Minerality coming through. Taste: Sweet Agave and Spicy Black Pepper are thrown at your Tongue. It takes a minute for that flavor to disapate before you can taste the nuances from the barrel. The Vanilla and Caramel bring a sense of balance after all the Pepper flavors. Oak is present, slightly. After letting it sit in the glass for 10-15 minutes and your own tastes come around, the sweet Citrus and Floral notes bring a balance to this pour. TMM 85
