Woodford Reserve Kentucky Derby 2022 -Tasting Experience – A Derby Worthy of Your Glass
Nose
Opens with warm vanilla and rich caramel, layered with toasted oak, a flicker of orange zest, and a gentle floral breeze—inviting and well-balanced.
Palate
Deliciously smooth and complex, each sip offers flavors of spiced honey, baked apple, cinnamon, and hints of dark fruit. The mid-palate reveals nutty undertones and a touch of chocolate-dipped orange peel, unfolding slowly with each swirl.
Finish
Long, warming, and satisfying, it leaves traces of toffee, clove, and oak, with a lingering note of sweet pepper and barrel spice.
A Label that Tells a Story
Each bottle features exclusive artwork by equine artist Jaime Corum, known for her vibrant, lifelike depictions of thoroughbreds. Her 2022 illustration captures the thrill of the race with three horses sprinting through a field of roses—instantly transporting you to Churchill Downs. This visual masterpiece turns every bottle into a display-worthy centerpiece.
