Big, jammy blueberries. A hint of smoke and vanilla. Oak seemed a bit unbalanced.

Big fruit body and flavor. Cherry, blueberry, blackberry, chocolate, maybe a touch cinnamon and barrel aroma. Cherry, dark berry, spiced punch flavor but a light acidity to liven it up. Oaky tannin rounds out the flavor very well. Not sure it pairs with beef burgundy but it's great by itself.

Very easy to drink and enjoy with no pairing. 2013 vintage more smokey with cherry nodes at the end than others.
