Top Notes For
Ross Chernin

Nose: Pumpkin pie spice, whipped cream, candied pecans, chocolate ganache with stewed fruit, turkey and gravy (note: having with lamb in June ;) ) and a hint of menthol on the finish.

Palate: pumpkin pie spice, tobacco, cinnamon ice cream, slight menthol, stewed rasberries

Beautiful texture, elegant, silky, still solid structure. So freaking pretty.

Still a baby. Tannins are like a clenched fist but it's got it's fruit. @Gusto

Probably reconditioned. Quite bright above a broad red fruit. Voluptuous. Not as linear as the others. Fleshy and delicious. Suspect for a 64
