TASTING NOTE:
The vanguard carries a rather moody nose of burnt honey, beeswax, peach fruit, some very subtle butter toffee, and a hint of cinnamon. Also, loads and loads and loads of orange citrus.
The palate possesses an impressively waxy texture on the palate, which couches those elements of fresh cut seville oranges and some fresh sunshine-y nectarine fruit.
The acid really is very impressive, and that tart seville orange element runs right down the middle into a fairly long tail.
