Turbid straw with a light pink hue - nose is pleasant, earthy raspberry, with equal parts sweet and tart character - peppery phenolics and light dustiness - flavor is syrupy, heavy, and sweet - the raspberry is pronounced and pleasant, but the sweetness is just too much - some spicy phenolics abd mild tartness try to balance, but ultimately do not - tastes like cough syrup at times - supremely disappointing.
