Nose
Dark fruit, rye spice, a rich port wine sweetness. The port and French oak finishing transforms the Rendezvous Rye into something luxurious — blackberry, plum, dark chocolate. Beneath the wine influence, the rye's natural pepper and cereal character. Complex and layered.
Palate
Rich and complex — port wine fruit, rye spice, dark chocolate. The finishing adds a luscious fruitiness that complements the rye's natural intensity. Mid-palate brings dried cherry, cinnamon, a gentle tannic structure. At 98.6 proof, the intensity is magnificent.
Finish
Very long, with port fruit and rye spice sustaining in a rich, warming fade.
