The nose was all kinds of stuff: papapya, mango, lettuce, lemon, and cantaloupe. The nose was herbal (lavender?), lemon, but mostly very floral! The finish retained the floral elements, but also with some spice -- oregano, and hints of something really spicy like cayenne. The only downside was this was just a bit too sweet -- and a tad thick -- for my tastes (no, not to say it was syrupy).<br /> <br /> <strong>Cost:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <img align="absmiddle" alt="" src="/images/0dollars.png" /><br /> <br /> Rating: <img align="absmiddle" alt="" src="/images/65stars.png" />&nbsp;&nbsp; 6.5</strong> http://decanterberrytales.com/blog/2008/09/05/1220632772260.html#comments http://decanterberrytales.com/blog/2008/09/05/1220632772260.html Fri, 05 Sep 2008 16:39:32 GMT http://decanterberrytales.com/blog/2007/08/16/1187314200000.html <img alt="" src="http://dnj.netx.net/view/0149/t_14941.jpg" /><img alt="" src="http://dnj.netx.net/view/0149/t_14962.jpg" /><br /> <br /> <strong>Smell</strong>: Chemical.<br /> <br /> <strong>Taste</strong>: Peach, melon, pineapple, quince, apple.<br /> <br /> <strong>Finish</strong>: Peach.<br /> <br /> <strong>Cost</strong>:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <img align="absmiddle" src="/images/2dollars.png" alt="" /><br /> <br /> <strong>Rating</strong>: <img align="absmiddle" src="/images/40stars.png" />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>4.0</strong> http://decanterberrytales.com/blog/2007/08/16/1187314200000.html#comments http://decanterberrytales.com/blog/2007/08/16/1187314200000.html Fri, 17 Aug 2007 01:30:00 GMT
