Delicately fruity, with fruit punch, orange juice, cherry syrup, and bubble gum. Sharp nose tickle despite the low ABV, but no young or ‘off’ aromas. Medium bodied. Very mild tongue burn. Tannic and slightly bitter (already) up front. Fruit punch and bubblegum again, but also bitter aromatic compounds (Angostura bitters) and anise. Medium-long. Less tannic than expected – only slightly mouth-drying. Drier now, and quite bitter as those aromatic bitters flavors continue through the finish.
