Pendleton 20 year old Directors’ Reserve (2017 Release)

Joining the core Pendleton lineup with a new edition expected each September. Past releases of Director’s Reserve have been irregular perhaps because a local rancher killed the buzz when he bought the entire first batch nearly a decade ago. A luxuriously creamy body coats your palate with mild vanilla butterscotch restrained white pepper and nutty plum pudding. Pencil shavings punctuate a medium finish. Less complexity than its age predicts.
