Flavor is awesome but the finish was thin and short!
A little thin on mouth feel but good barrel flavors at a reasonable price. Definitely work a try
Nose: Oak, vanilla, agave, olive, must, peppermint Palate: Aging is done very lightly (very like Felipe) and is enjoyable. Gave this a try and came back a couple of months later to try again. Agave, oak, minerals, honey, and fruit. Finish: Nice medium viscosity with faint touch of pepper
Vessel: CTC Jarrito Nose: Honey, Peach, Cooked Agave, Oak, Apricot, Walnut Palate: Pepper, Stonefruit, Honeysuckle, Cream Finish: Vanilla, Cream Soda, Pear, Macadamia Nut, Mild Minerality. This one was particularly unique compared to what I might expect coming out of El Pandillio. To me the nose was stone fruit; distinctly Apricot and Peach. It seemed like all of the other aromas were built around that, the two most prominent were the honey and walnut followed by the trace amounts of oak. The Stone fruit followed through on the initial palate, although it became less distinctly Peach and Apricot. I also got sweet floral notes of Honeysuckle and cream with a faint tinge of cinnamon. The finish came through, sweet and nutty. Lots of creamy, vanilla and nutty notes. All in all, this was a delightful change of pace for an El Pandillio, Reposado. Where I might reach for a Volans, Don Vicente on a fall or Mild winter day, the floral notes make this quite fitting for a cooler spring day.
